I'm feelin' good from my head to my shoes
Know where I'm goin' and I know what to do
I tidied up my point of view
I got a new attitude
Runnin' hot, runnin' cold
I was runnin' into overload
It was extreme, ex-ex-ex-ex-ex-extreme
It took it so high, so low
So low, there was nowhere to go
Like a dream
Somehow the wires uncrossed, the tables were turned
Never knew I had such a lesson to learn
I'm feelin' good from my head to my shoes
Know where I'm goin' and I know what to do
I tidied up my point of view
I got a new attitude
I'm in control, my worries are few
'Cause I've got love like I never knew
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
I got a new attitude
I'm wearing a new dress (New), new hair (New)
Brand new ideas, as a matter of fact I've changed for good
It must have been the cool night, new moon, new slight change
???More than to figure??? but I feel like I should, yes
Somehow the wires uncrossed, the tables were turned
Never knew I had such a lesson to learn
I'm feelin' good from my head to my shoes
Know where I'm goin' and I know what to do
I tidied up my point of view
I got a new attitude
I'm in control, my worries are few
'Cause I've got love like I never knew
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
I got a new attitude
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh...ooh...
Somehow the wires uncrossed, the tables were turned
Never knew I had such a lesson to learn
I'm feelin' good from my head to my shoes
Know where I'm goin' and I know what to do
I tidied up my point of view
I got a new attitude
I'm in control, my worries are few
'Cause I've got love like I never knew
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
I got a new attitude

Annie Mac Encheeze went to her final resting place on Thursday, June 2, 2011. She suffered for years with the big food manufacturers disease... the BIG Food M! Which overtook her in the end.
She fought hard with this tragic disease and never gave up her fight, however on Thursday morning at 3:14 a.m., The Big Food M gang got together and planned their attack... Kraft, Coca Cola, and the rest of the gang, snuck into her boudoir while she fitfully slept, dreaming of the end of the healthful organic foods by the hands of the Big Food Mafia.
She struggled, but was snuffed out when a supersized loaf of Bleached, Enriched Wonder Bread was held down over her face. The struggling finally came to an end and the Big Food M gang left without a crumb of guilt amongst them.
She had been working on creating a product for people who not only had sensitivities to gluten, pesticides and herbicides, but was on the verge of producing the most awesome macaroni and cheese that had all of these things and was casein free as well, yet tasted better than real cow's cheese.
Working closely with Annie was Udi Prod Ucts, a close friend and business associate who's like-mindedness had him working parallel to Annie in fighting off the Big Food Mafia. Udi will continue the fight in honor of Annie's memory to put a stop to these food criminals of a historic proportion. No charges have been filed, as the FDA says they don't mind turning a blind eye to their buddies.
Services will be held at the Foodfer Life Memorial Center at 1pm this Sunday. Contributions to the Stop Big Food M Foundation are welcome.

Health Goals
My health and wellness goals include a daily walk of at least 45 minutes, bike rides- well actually trike rides on my recumbent trike (6 speed) 3 days a week for as long as I feel like.. at least half an hour. I recently found this awesome Rebike Retrike for sale on craigslist and bought it. It gives an awesome abdominal workout as well as cardiac.
Food wise I have stopped eating MOST gluten products and MOST other grains for that matter because they seem to make me feel bloated and tired. I have limited my fat intake to 20% of my daily intake because at my age... in my late 40s I want to take off about 30 extra lbs and not get out of control with it.
I joined weight watchers with my cousin three weeks ago and so far I have lost 4 lbs. I know it is not much but I won't give up on it.
My husband is a heath food fanatic--- that is him below....with our golden retriever Amber.
Please bare with me.. as this is in fact relevant! He was diagnosed with diabetes 14 years ago in Australia... where he lived most of his life. He was put on medication that made him feel "weird" as he describes it.. so he simply stopped taking the blood sugar medication and started eating in a logical way for lowering his blood sugar naturally. This included- and still includes eating whole grains, minimal sugars and the least processed foods that he could find. After two years in the United States, he was told by a doctor that he was NOT diabetic and that he apparently cured himself with his diet.
So.... here I am bringing all kinds of foods that are fine for myself and my daughter to eat, yet he is will not touch because he is very strict on what he chooses to eat. I like to eat a lot of fruit and some of it he gets downright ticked off at me for bringing home... such as watermelon or pineapple ... he said that they both have "too much sugar" so I should not eat it. (I am not diabetic!)
Everything he doesn't like he says is "POISON". I agree that soda pop may be poison however... not fruit! Oh... and bananas are poison as well according to him!
Stewart, my husband after 7 years of marriage has finally stopped making snide remarks about my fruit! He simply gives it a dirty look and glares at it when he sees me with it. I don't think he will EVER accept that what may not be okay for him is still okay for myself and my daughter to eat.

Annie's Macaroni and Cheese
Went to the supermarket with my husband and 15 year old daughter in tow.
we found the pasta isle and at first it was difficult to find the specific product, "Annie's Macaroni And Cheese".
Finally we spotted it on the 2nd to bottom shelf. There were only 2 boxes there so I grabbed one of them.
I was pleased to see on the box that it was gluten free because I seem to feel better when I eat gluten free products. We got a few other items from the shop that we needed while we were there and then went to pay in line.
The cashier noticed my husband snapping photos of the box of Macaroni and Cheese and said she hated to be photographed. You will see her in the pictures at the cash register.
We made another stop on the way home (which took way longer then we would have liked!) and then drove home. By the time we had arrived at home, we were all very hungry so I started to make the macaroni and cheese immediately. I first started by boiling water and allowing it to start boiling before adding the noodles.
I set the timer and allowed the noodles to boil.
While they were boiling I mixed together the cheese powder with the milk (I used rice milk because we all prefer it to cow's milk).
After the timer went off for the noodles I drained the noodles in the sink and the put them back into the pot.
I added the cheese mixture and it was ready to eat.
By this time we were all extremely hungry because we had not anticipated that our trip into town would take as long as it had and none of us had had anything to eat since early in the morning. It was 7PM Mountain time by the time I served up the food.
My husband set up the camera to take timed photos of us as we were eating so all three of us could be in the pictures.
My 15 year old daughter commented that it tasted really good, except she would have liked for us to mix something like chicken or salmon into it "Like we usually do".
Let me explain: when we eat macaroni and cheese we always put either chicken or salmon in with it as well as veggies to add to the nutritional value of the meal.
My husband liked the product but said he thought he would have liked larger noodles. Personally, I prefer small noodles like the ones that were in this product.
