So on to my real post that I was going to do.
I was reading my Weight Watchers magazine tonight. Yes, a Saturday night I am sitting home reading a magazine....how pathetic is that. And that is another long story. Haha. Not really. But I came across a recipe that I want to try. I haven't yet because I didn't have the ingredients and I don't feel like going to the grocery at 10PM, even though the store is always empty. But here is the recipe:
1/3 C honey
2 large eggs
1/2 tsp salt
1 C old-fashioned rolled oats
1/2 C instant nonfat dry milk
1/2 C each shelled unsalted pumpkin seeds; unsweetened shredded coconut; ground flax seeds; dried apricots;, chopped; and dried cherries
1/4 C whole wheat flour
1.Preheat oven to 350. Line 9-inch square baking pan with nonstick foil.
2.Beat honey, eggs, and salt with fork in small bowl until well blended. Put oats, dry milk, pumpkin seeds, coconut, flax seeds, apricots, cherries, and flour in food processor and pulse until finely chopped. Add honey mixture to food processor and pulse until mixture is evenly moistened.
3.Transfer dough to baking pan; press into even layer with dampened fingers. Bake until center in set and edges are browned, about 20 minutes. Let cool slightly on rack, 10 minutes. Holding foil, transfer bar from pan to cutting board. Cut into 20 (1 1/2-inch) bars. Let cool completely, peel off foil.
Per serving (1 bar): 118 cal, 5g total fat, 2g sat. fat, 0g trans fat, 22mg chol, 78mg sod, 16g total carb, 10g total sugar, 2g fib, 4g prot, 10mg calc. PointsPlus value: 3
I so can't wait to try these out. I have been struggling with snacky kinds of foods. So I am for trying out something new!!

Silent Library
Has anyone ever seen the show on MTV called Silent Library? It is hilarious!! This is what the website says the show is about:
"Rarely however does the word library become part of the title of a new MTV show that has been described as "Jackass... set in an enclosed environment." Modeled after a Japanese game show, Silent Library will represent a new breed of competition format that will feature six friends, all vying for a cash prize, forced to impose unimaginable, beyond hysterical stunts on one another. With stunts ranging from brushing one's teeth with wasabi to having your face held in the path of "the slapper" (a gloved hand that rotates on an automated machine) it will be obvious to viewers that remaining silent is much easier said than done.
Within each episode, team members will repeatedly draw cards to determine who must step up to the plate to endure the next "test." The teammate who unluckily draws the skull and cross bones card will have to complete the task at hand to the satisfaction of the wise cracking host and moderator of Silent Library. Should the teammate performing the stunt not last long enough or should their friends seated beside them erupt with uncontainable laughter... the cash prize on the line will decrease."
I was sitting down to do a post for Angi from my Weight Watchers magazine, turned on the TV and it was on MTV. I wait to see what was on because it was a commercial at the time. I come to find out it was Silent Library. I would have normally changed the channel, but I saw these massive guys walking in. So naturally I stayed with it for a little bit. Haha. I come to find out they are players from the New York Giants football team. It is hilarious to see these grown, strong men get bitten on the ear by an old man with no teeth, and get kicked in the rear-end by a little girl on a swing with soccer cleats on!
