"I focus on the steps, and the goal will take care of itself!"

I did so well yesterday eating out, I have all the confidences, that tonight I am going to shine like the star I am. (big smile) My sister and brother-in-law are having a party to celebrate their 40th wedding anniversary. We are all bringing a dish to pass.

So I got up early today and started to make the paste salad (which I said I would bring before I started this quest I am on) You have to know, I don't usually cook, but I knew I could do it With all my fresh ingredients before me on the counter. I started to clean, chop, and dice all my fresh veggies. Then I cooked the assorted pasta.

Can you say?? Yummy!!! Pretty!!!

Then I had to make some kind of sauce for all these goodies. I used Light Hellmann's Mayo, light sour cream mixed together with some milk. And for a little added flavor I added some Kraft Creamy Poppy seed Dressing (not to much its not low fat).

I like cooking!! Did I just say that? Don't tell Mike I said that, he will make me cook more. It's different wanting to do it as apposed to having to do it. This will be our little secret.
