I LOVE To Bake........

Which is why I haven't been able to stay focused on my Weight Watchers!!!

 This has been a tough summer! My garden failed with this horrible heat wave that we've had here in Sun City, California! That is why I have no follow up pictures of my garden this year.  But I'm not giving up.  I will have one next year!

So there was my excuse to not stay focused on eating all of my fresh veggies and grilling my meats and veggies as I planned to do all summer.  It has been so hot out here, we haven't even enjoyed our yard this summer. When we come home we stay in our air conditioned home and sit because we are exhausted from this heat!  

I had a few girls from the "Unique Boutique" over two weeks ago to discuss our next boutique on November 2nd & 3rd, 2012.  So of course I had to "Bake" which I love to do and so I  made this beautiful lemon tart (all from scratch including the whipped cream that we made sure we had extra of for my friend Carlina who loves whipped cream).  This tart not only looks great but it tasted absolutely delicious! Very refreshing!




Of course no gathering is complete without a triple layer chocolate cake!

And I made four Quiche's:  Chicken with goat cheese and asparagus, Chicken with cheddar and spinach and two bacon and spinach quiches.
Needless to say this was not a Weight Watchers evening!!!!

But I was in my element of good friends, good food and good conversation!  What a nice evening we shared, I look forward to our next meeting.  But I "DO" have to focus on my diet!!!!!  I "WILL" I promise!!!!
