Bargain guide, week beginning December 29th

Tomorrow is National Bicarbonate of Soda Day – a couple of days in advance of the necessity, I suspect. The day after, December 31st, is unsurprisingly National Champagne Day; the day after is Bloody Mary Day: one cup of tomato juice has a PointsPlus count of 1, but sadly a single shot of vodka (1.5 oz) has a count of 4. New Year’s Day is also Apple Gifting Day, and remember fruit is free!

January is National Soup Month. As I type this it is 44°F out and raining like a pig, so a plate of soup sounds really nice right about now.

December 29th: National Pepper Pot Day
December 30th: National Bicarbonate of Soda Day
December 31st: National Champagne Day
January 1st: National Bloody Mary Day, Apple Gifting Day
January 2nd: National Cream Puff Day
January 3rd: National Chocolate Covered Cherries Day (possibly because there are so very many boxes of them left at drugstores)
January 4th: National Spaghetti Day
January 5th: National Whipped Cream Day

Stay warm and safe, and Happy New Year.

Bargain guide, week beginning December 15th

Today has been National Cupcake Day: tomorrow is National Chocolate Covered Anything Day, both very flexible for modes of celebration. Saturday, the 18th, is National Roast Suckling Pig Day, which I will readily skip over this year as every year. The 21st is National Kiwifruit Day – kiwifruit are free on PointsPlus. Sangria, sadly, is not, despite its fruit content, so if you celebrate National Sangria Day on the 20th you should track it.

PointsPlus got a wholly positive mention on the Fooducate blog. Upshot: “The scientific team at WW revised the points system to encourage consumption of high fiber, high antioxidant produce simply by making them free!... So if you are hungry for a snack, this system nudges you to whole unprocessed fare, not 100 calorie packs of fillers and artificial sweeteners.”

The FDA is cracking down on Dannon, the makers of Activia yogurt. In the future:
• Dannon may no longer claim that any yogurt or dairy drink will reduce your likelihood of catching a cold or flu.
• Dannon may claim that Activia will relieve irregularity or aid “slow intestinal transit time” … as long as the ad mentions that this requires three servings of Activia per day.
• Dannon may not make that claim for any other yogurt, dairy drink, or probiotic food product unless they can produce two well-designed studies to substantiate the claim.

Bargain guide, week beginning December 8th

It’s the second week of December, which is National Lager Week, and the 10th – this Friday – is National Lager Day. Sunday, the 12th, is National Cocoa Day: Swiss Miss “Sensible Sweets” (the one labeled “Diet”) still has a PointsPlus count of 1 for one packet, 1 for two packets! And each packet still counts as a glass of milk. So have two.

The 13th is Ice Cream and Violins Day. This is another of those holidays that fall under the category of “ ... and no one knows why.” The day after is National Bouillabaisse Day: my preferred bouillabaisse recipe is the almost artistically imprecise one in Euell Gibbons’s Stalking the Blue-Eyed Scallop, the one that begins “3 pounds white-meated fish, 3 cups crustacean shellfish meat, 3 dozen molluscan shellfish … ”

Latest from Fooducate: just what “cold pressed” on a bottle of oil means, and why it has different meanings on the two sides of the Atlantic; and why a European Nutri-Grain bar contains beetroot, and why that’s a good thing.

Bargain guide, week beginning December 1st

I'm grabbing a few minutes away from Operation Cover-To-Cover to update the blog: welcome to December, which is National Fruit Cake Month and National Egg Nog Month. There honestly is such a thing as edible – even delicious – fruit cake, and it comes from Collin Street Bakery. The 5th is National Prohibition Repeal Day – I’ll gladly drink to that.

Donna Currie, at Serious Eats, is currently working on what she’s calling a Sourdough-Starter-Along: a day-by-day project to make her own sourdough starter.

I should probably mention that neither the weekly handout nor this blog are remotely in any way, shape, form, or fashion an official Weight Watchers production. Mine and mine alone.

December 1st: National Pie Day, Eat a Red Apple Day
December 2nd: National Fritters Day
December 3rd: National Apple Pie Day
December 4th: National Cookie Day
December 5th: National Repeal Day, National Sachertorte Day
December 6th: National Gazpacho Day, Microwave Oven Day
December 7th: National Chocolate Brownie Day
December 8th: National Cotton Candy Day
