Summer Dessert

What is a better dessert during the summer than blueberry-peach cobbler?

Use peaches that aren't superripe for this recipe so they'll hold their shape when cooked. The baking dish will be brimming with fruit and topping, so it's a good idea to place it on a foil-lined baking sheet before putting it in the oven.

We recommend this recipe from myrecipes.com.

YIELD: 12 servings (serving size: about 3/4 cup)

Ingredients
5 pounds peaches, peeled, pitted, and sliced
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 cup granulated sugar, divided
3/8 teaspoon salt, divided
6 3/4 ounces (about 1 1/2 cups) plus 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour, divided
Cooking spray
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 cup butter, softened
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3/4 cup buttermilk
2 cups fresh blueberries
2 tablespoons turbinado sugar

The New Skinnygirl - Sangria!

Bethenny Frankel has announced the next cocktail from Skinnygirl, the Skinnygirl Sangria.

We canNOT wait! We love Bethenny's Skinnygirl Margarita and we are sure we will love her newest creation. Skinnygirl Sangria will be available in most markets by the end of July and all markets by the end of August.

We MUST get our hands on a bottle ASAP!

Sandwich Bar

We branched out last night to try a new restaurant/cafe in the "milk district" of Orlando, Florida - The Sandwich Bar.

The Sandwich Bar is a place "where herbivore and carnivore can dine together and not eat each other". We loved it!

We ordered "Captain Lloyd's Tuna Salad Sandwich" and our friend ordered the "Pilgrim". We split the two sandwiches so that we could have the best of both worlds. The tuna was served on a delicious multigrain baguette and had the perfect amount of mayonnaise (not too much) and the "Pilgrim" was a warm turkey sandwich that left us wanting more.

Oh, and we didn't mention the best part... Organic fresh pressed juice! Finally a restaurant in town that serves fresh juices. We enjoyed the #3 - carrot, apple, celery and watermelon. Yum!

Prices were reasonable and the quality was excellent. We recommend and support the Sandwich Bar. We will be trying the "Healthy Butt" on our next visit ;)

Press the Reset Button

After a long holiday weekend of eating and drinking, we are setting the reset button. Today we go back to work and need to go back to our healthier lifestyle.

Our reset guide:

* Enjoy a good breakfast - A cup of non-fat yogurt with strawberries and blueberries (yogurt is a great source of protein and berries are good antioxidants)

* Get moving - Go on an early morning walk or an evening walk. If you can't make either of those work, get up from your desk and walk around for 30 minutes.

* Hydrate - Drink water! We know we didn't get hardly enough water over the holiday weekend.

* Get green - make sure to sneak in fortifying greens. Add them to your lunch salad or wrap or as a side dish for dinner.

* Sleep well - get a full night of sleep.
