OK - I'm not going to panic yet 
I just have to leave here, and will be gone until around 7:00ish - and when I get home I'll research some recipes.
Most people bring either a lasagna, enchilada casserole, etc. Something cheesy and fattening.
I'd like to bring something I can eat!

Ahhh...I hate the pressure!
I have to bring a casserole 3 times a year, a salad 3 times a year, host once, appetizers once and the other 4 times a year I get to just go and enjoy myself.
I really don't like bringing casseroles!
So...I have 2 votes for the enchiladas and 1 for the tortilla dish...
Any other suggestions? I shop tomorrow at 2:00 - prep by 3:00 and out the door at 6:30 for the wine club, so I'll have to narrow this down soon!

Well, I'll be getting ready for my walk soon - I'm almost nervous about meeting up with Pam again. I go from thinking I won't be able to keep up with her today to thinking I'll never beat yesterday's time...eeeek! So much pressure LOL!
Anyway, I hope you all have a good day!

You are smoking in the walking dear. You are truly inspiring. And the lbs keep coming off, slowly but surely.
Here are some walking/exercise sayings I found, enjoy:
-Walking can add minutes to your life. This enables you at 85 years old to spend an additional 5 months in a nursing home at $5000 per month.
-My grandmother started walking five miles a day when she was 60. Now she's 97 years old and we don't know where the hell she is.
-The only reason I would take up exercising is so that I could hear heavy breathing again.
-I joined a health club last year, spent about 400 bucks. Haven't lost a pound. Apparently you have to go there.
-I have to exercise early in the morning before my brain figures out what I'm doing.
-I like long walks, especially when they are taken by people who annoy me.
-The advantage of exercising every day is that you die healthier.
-If you are going to try cross-country skiing, start with a small country.
-You could run this over to your friends but why not just e-mail it to them!

OMG Patty - I serioulsy laughed out loud!
As for the casserole, I think I'll go with the chicken enchilada - but my timing is all off...I realized I scheduled a DMV appointment for my MIL at 2:00, so I have to get this done before 1:00. To think I USED to love to cook!
Pinky, you CAN keep doing this, no matter how tired you are - we all can
OK - I went for my walk, and Pam wasn't there. I had the option to walk my normal pace or try and match hers...
The good news:
5 miles 57.96 11.59 minutes per mile
Lap 1 .25 mile 4.15
Lap 2 2.25 miles 24.30
Lap 3 2.25 miles 25.39
Lap 4 .25 mile 4.12
I beat my time with her by smidgin's - not a lot, but I now know I can do it alone - It just seems that there is no way I'm going to break down into the 10 minute mile catagory unless I jog/run and I don't think my chest will let me
