So, another Holiday has arrived. some of us are sad to see the summer go and the new season to begin, and some of us are just relieved. the weather has been changing here in Brooklyn, and it seems that all in all, it is much more comfortable. no more sweaty, terribly painful humid days.

but back to the main point: **how will you be spending your holiday weekend and what are your plans for stuffing your mouth with all the fun party foods and drinks?**

(and we all know that Eric will be drinking beer, because, whats new? 😉 )

Well, I started the partying early tonight with hot dogs that were meant for next week because…well, I’d had a ridiculously difficult and stressful day, and hot dogs were the easiest/quickest thing to cook in my house.

But we’ll be having some form of BBQ (ribs or chicken), potato salad, which is still kind to my BG levels, and some veggies at some point this weekend (hubby is actually working almost the entire weekend, boo). There will probably be ice cream involved somewhere in there…and lots of chocolate (again, stressful day/week).

I was just discussing low carb BLT options and came up with this … can’t wait to make some today.

Large leaf lettuce -Romaine/ big Butter lettuce (to use as the wrap for the sandwich)  
Bacon  
Tomato  
Avocado  
Cheese  
Salsa (a little for a little zip!)

Roll and enjoy!!

That’s actually the “LBTACS”, little known cousin to the BLT…

Chocolate is a fruit and a vitamin (Vitamin CH) as far as I am concerned!

Definitely goofing: “Vitamin CH” is just another good reason in our family to eat chocolate (as if I needed another reason)! 😸
