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!

2 in 1 day!!!

I also found a recipe on called Chocolate Chip Clouds!! I have been craving chocolate all last week and saw these and they are only 1 pointplus!!! I had to make them!!

• 9 tbsp egg whites (room temperature)
• 1/8 tsp cream of tartar
• 1/2 cup sugar
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 2 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1 cup chocolate chips
1. Heat oven to 300°F.
2. Cover cookie sheet with silpat or nonstick silicone pad.
Using a mixer, beat the egg whites and cream of tartar together in large bowl at high speed until soft peaks form. Gradually add sugar a little at a time, then vanilla, beating well after each addition until you get stiff peaks, the sugar is dissolved and the mixture is glossy.
3. Sift cocoa onto egg white mixture; gently fold until combined.
4. Fold in chocolate chips. Drop mixture by tablespoons onto cookie sheet. Makes 30 cookies.
5. Bake 35 to 45 minutes or just until dry. Cool slightly; remove from cookie sheet. Cool completely on wire rack. Store covered, at room temperature.

Weight Watchers Snacks!!

I am doing Wieght Watchers with my mom and my sister, and I have been having a hard time with snack food! Well I found this amazing blog. All of her recipes look so good!! I decided since I was off today that I would make a couple of snacks and try them out. Ok I will admit that I was missing being in the kitchen too!

The recipe that I was really excited to try is called Healthy Roasted Chickpea Snack.

• 15 oz can chickpeas, drained
• olive oil spray
• salt
• 1 tsp chili pepper powder (to taste)
• 1 tsp cumin
• 1 tsp paprika
• 1 tsp coriander
• 1 tsp curry powder
• 1 tsp garlic powder
Preheat oven to 375°. Drain chickpeas in a colander and let them dry completely. Pat dry with a paper towel if needed.

Arrange on a baking sheet in a single layer and roast for about 30-35 minutes, shaking the pan every ten minutes. All ovens are different so make sure they don't burn. They will be golden brown and crunchy on the inside when done, not moist.

In a medium bowl, combine all the spices. Remove chickpeas from oven when done and spray with olive oil spray. Immediately toss with spices while hot. Eat at room temperature.

All I have to say is that they are so delicious!!
