I'm pissed. Let's go buy some shit.

Yup. That's what I bought.

When I said that I was pissed and wanted to go buy some shit, I wasn't referring to items that would actually make me shit. Although from the Instagram picture above, it would appear that that was my sole intention. I mean, really? Fiber One bars AND bananas? Oy...it's going to be a rough night.

Due to the fact that I'm a tad bit salty right now, I'm not going to bore you with the details of today's weigh-in.  I lost 0.2 pounds. Hence the reason why I'm pissed and apparently taking natural remedies to rid myself of any extra weight that I may possibly be storing.

I know...I know. Gross.

So now that we have that shit out of the way (yes my friends...total pun intended), let's move on.

I tried out two new recipes for Memorial Day - Macaroni Salad and Mini-Brownie Cupcakes. So...because they were yummy in my tummy, I'd be willing to be that they would be yummy in your tummy too! And not break the points bank - just in case you are tracking those pesky things.

So...without further adieu, here are those recipes for your next mouthwatering side dish and tastebud tantalizing dessert.
