BF Top 5: Protein bars!
There was a time, not so long ago, that I was very opposed to protein bars. Because I only tended to see protein bars at 7-Eleven and Wal-Mart, I had the idea that they were all carb heavy and no better for you than a candy bar. I’m here to admit—before you, the world-wide web and God—that I was wrong. …

~~ by Jen So we asked “how do our Pouchers wanna go bananas?” and you answered, mostly “Banana Cream Pie!” I was secretly hoping for Banana Pudding, because my StepMom makes THE BEST banana pudding you ever put in your mouth, and I come from a long line of great Southern cooks. So, since this is my recipe, I decided to …

~~posted by Jen Lots of times I steam fresh or frozen veggies for a side dish, and inevitably when I clean out the fridge, there is always a sad little container of leftover vegetables. Today was my weekly fridge cleaning day, and I found just such a container of mixed vegetables (peas, corn, carrots, & green beans), maybe a cup …

Soooo…remember way back when we did the poll on frozen pies? And I told you my divas were mad at all of you because they wanted the cookies and cream one? Well the other day I noticed my puppy was missing. On the kitchen counter was my batter bowl and under it was a note that said, “Make our pie …

~~by Nikki Anyone who knows me knows several things: first, that I am a shameless “know-it-all,” second, that I’d give you the shirt off my back if I thought you needed it. Lastly, those who TRULY know me…know that shirt didn’t cost much cuz I am CHEAP! Well I wouldn’t say cheap…frugal. That’s a better word. Either way I try …

Hey friends. Sorry for the lag time between posts. Pouch Party(TM) seems to have been DISCOVERED (hence the fact that I have been ordered…erm, instructed to use the damn trademark symbol whenever referencing it). I’ll post a rundown of booked parties next week so that folks don’t miss out on the fun and, as always, if you want Pouch Party(TM) …

~~by Nikki So since it seems we’ve been on a tour of “Nik’s favorite summer flavors (as told through protein shakes)” I figured I’d continue the trend here. This was one of the first non-standard protein shakes I learned how to make and it still serves me well when I have a taste for it. Now I know what some …

~~by Nikki I am a poet and I didn’t even know it! Ok, so I live in Baltimore. Jen is in New Jersey. Both our states are embroiled (never before has that been the MOST appropriate adjective) in a heat wave! It was 105 degrees in Baltimore yesterday, beating the record of 101 set in 1999. At 11 p.m. it …

BF Barbecue, circa 2013. I look kinda like a zombie in this picture, but I really was having fun! So it’s almost barbecue season. And some of you may be stressed out. For a number of reasons. Maybe you: Aren’t yet sure what foods you can tolerate and don’t want to get sick in front of others. Haven’t shared your …
