Lose Those Fourth of July Cookout Calories!

This July 4th weekend is all about freedom, so don't feel guilty if you exercised yours a little too much at your family BBQ! I hope you had that burger, beer, macaroni salad and whatever else was on the menu at your mid-summer party, and now you can make the necessary diet adjustments. Here are some simple steps to get back on track!

1) If you're Thirsty, Drink Water
Good old water is a better way to stay hydrated than those carbonated drinks —those tingly bubbles just end up in your belly, causing it to puff out more.

2) Cook your Veggies
A half-cup serving of cooked carrots delivers the same nutrition as one cup raw, but it takes up less room in your GI tract.

3) Season without Salt
You may be attracted to your saltshaker, but water is, too. When you take in higher than usual amounts sodium, you’ll temporarily retain more fluid, contributing to that sluggish feeling, a puffy appearance, and extra water weight.

4) Less Carbs and More Protein
As a backup energy source, your muscles store a type of carbohydrate called glycogen, and every gram of glycogen is stored with about 3 grams of water. But unless you have a vigorous exercise routine, you don't need all this stockpiled fuel. When you decrease the carbs, you'll temporarily train your body to access this stored fuel and burn it off. At the same time, you'll drain off excess stored fluids.

5) Season food with flavors that won't Bloat the Belly.
Feel the heat for one night, then lay off the barbecue sauce and garlic for a few days while debloating. Give dishes a flavor boost with in-season fresh or dried herbs like dill, basil, mint, sage, tarragon, and rosemary.


6) Chew Seeds, Not Gum
If you chew gum by habit try to reach for some nuts, like roasted or raw unsalted sunflower seeds. "Cause when you chew gum, you swallow air. All that air gets trapped in your GI tract and causes pressure, bloating, and belly expansion.

And please, Remember the Fallen, who sacrificed their lives for your freedom on this Independence Day!

The following article, I feel, is very useful and helpful for anyone interested in radar and laser detectors. The article was written on detecttheradar.com

Radar Detectors


Radar detectors are devices used to detect speed sensing equipment used by law enforcement.There are three types of mounts available.

The first type of detector is a corded unit that attaches to the windshield using suction cups and "plugs" into the power supply by the cord.The second type of detector is a cordless unit. The detector is usually battery powered and is more easily transferred between vehicles.The last type of detector is remote mounted and is permanently mounted in the vehicle. It cannot be transferred between vehicles.

All types of radar detectors have the ability to detect some level of radar signals, but there are several different options available.One of the options available among radar detectors is the ability to detect laser signals. Some police officers use radar that has laser speed detection.

These speed guns are more accurate and can be used to determine speed from further away. The radar detector able to detect laser signals gives the driver the ability to determine that his speed is being checked by laser long before the laser gun can actually determine the speed of the car.

In some states, radar detectors are not legal and cannot be used. Some radar detectors have an option that makes it "invisible" to radar guns. VG-2 and Spectre protection is basic shielding that alerts the driver that radar detection detectors are being used by police officers.

Stealth mode, another option, alerts the driver and then shuts down the radar detector to prevent detection by law enforcement. Lastly, some detectors offer "invisible" modes that totally make the radar detectors undetectable by law enforcement but still allow the radar detector to function. The higher the level of protection from detection that is available, the more the radar detector will cost you.Another useful feature of some radar detectors is voice alerts.

All radar detectors have different tones for different alerts, but sometimes it is necessary to take your eyes off the road to check the detector. The need to check the detector can be lessened by voice alert. This feature actually tells you what the tone is for and allows you to keep your eyes on the road at all times.

The average police officer on flat terrain can detect your speed from ¼ mile away. It is important that your radar detector can detect impulses from law enforcement from at least 1 ½ miles away to as much as 4 miles away in order to be able to slow down and take in your surroundings.

While many people choose to have a radar detector to keep from receiving a speeding ticket, radar detectors can be used also to determine the presence of police activity in the area. This could be an indicator of an automobile crash or some other traffic incident that will result in a slow-down in traffic.

With all the options available, make sure you spend time reviewing your driving needs before you choose which radar detector you will buy.

Amelia's Cajun Jambalaya

Due to our trip to New Orleans, I would like to add a new recipe that’s a definite favorite:

Amelia’s Cajun Jambalaya

Ingredients:
1. 2 boxes Zatarains Jambalaya mix
2. 1lb. ground sirloin
3. 1pkg beef or pork sausage link
4. 1/2stk real butter
5. 1 drop crab boil(secret ingredient)
6. 1/2Bell Pepper
7. 1 garlic clove
8. 1 celery stalk( not the whole celery stalk, just 1 stick)
9. 1 6oz. carnation chili peppers(an added variation if preferred)

Cut the beef or pork sausage link into approx. ¼ to ½ “slices, then sauté until fully cooked and set aside.

Combine the following in a skillet:

Ground sirloin, bell pepper (chopped fine), 1clove of garlic (smashed and chopped),
Celery stalk (chopped fine), can of carnation chili peppers.
Cook sirloin and veggies until sirloin is good and brown. Then, drain grease from sirloin.

In a large pot, add water(approx. 2 cups per box), the jambalaya mix, real butter; bring to a boil over medium high heat.

While rice is boiling, add 1 drop of liquid crab boil (just to give a hint of Cajun flavor).
When the rice is almost done add the ground sirloin and the sautéed sausage.
Cook until the rice is soft and done and the water is gone, stirring frequently.

Radar Detectors and Traveling

Traveling is adventurous! My Family and I just returned last night from our summer vacation, and have I got news for you. Purchase a radar laser detector. We love to drive around the country, there are just so many things to see. We traveled through Kansas, Missouri( from Kansas City to St. Louis), Kentucky, Tennessee, Alabama, Georgia (to Atlanta), Pensacola Florida, New Orleans, Arkansas, Texas and Oklahoma. Of course we had rests along the way, staying with family.
The news I have for you is not that the gas prices have gone up for summer trips(approx.$2.45 to $2.65 a gallon), but rather the highway patrol is everywhere! And I mean it. If you tend to have a lead foot or just try to push the 5 mile an hour unspoken rule, you had better be prepared with a little protection sitting on your dash. Meaning a radar and laser detector. Click hear to check out one that I know about, and it is neat. Or, for a little less, click here.
These babies will help protect you. These highway patrolman are not always seen, but with this early warning radar detector, you'll be as ready for the road as you can get. I hate to sound like a commercial and I know it does from my proof reading. I don't mean it to sound like that. But, it's crazy out there without a radar detector.

Weekend Fishing/Catfish Bait Recipe

It's the weekend again, and you know what that means! Fishing! This weekend we (Mike and I) are trying for catfish and hopefully we'll catch some. Here are some tips you can try out on your fishing trip!

Rod and Reel

When fishing for catfish it’s good to have a nice strong rod and reel. An Eagle claw® Featherlight rod is pretty good. It’s got a 5-6 ft. rod with a 6 pound test line great for small catfish.

Fishing Line

You should always change your line about every six months; because of the sun and water your line may become weak.

Where to fish

When going after catfish you look for area’s that catfish may be in such as under water logs, reeded and rocky spots.

Bait

You have many different kinds of bait used to catch catfish. The one’s used most is hog wild and chicken liver. But you have many other kinds of catfish bait like meal worms, night crawlers, stink bait, marshmallows, cheese garlic balls, soft bait, blood worms, frogs etc. You can also make your own bait when fishing for catfish.

Catfish Bait Recipe

Take a can of dog food and mix it with 1oz of garlic, ½ cup of cornmeal, ¼ cup of cheese. Roll into little balls about the size of a marble, just big enough to cover what ever size hook you are using. Garlic is for smell, corn meal and cheese help hold the dog food together longer. After you roll the bait balls keep them in a cool place, it works better.

Weight
The weight is very important. Weight will determine how far or how short you will be able to cast your cast your line. If you’re near or over rocks use top action. Use 1/8oz weight and a float to keep you on the top of the water and out of the rocks. If you’re using any ounce of egg weight your weight will rise a little off the bottom. If you’re using 1/2oz or 1oz lead weight its best if you put your weight on the bottom and your rig above the weight.

Hooks
Be sure not sto use a hook that is to big for the bait you are using. If you’re using night crawlers you might want to use a 4 or 6 size hook. If you’re using chicken liver you might won’t to use a 2 or 4 size hook. If you’re using stink bait, soft bait, cheese or hog wild bait use a size 8 treble hook.
