The Best Pies in America: The Serious Eats Pie Honor Roll
The Norske Nook in Osseo, Wisconsin has pies good enough to plan a trip for. The strawberry is gorgeous, the merengue pies are enormous, and the sour cream blueberry apple, my favorite, could make you weep with pleasure!

I've recently lost 35 pounds, and here are a few things I think really helped:
Kashi Instant Oatmeal--kept me full until lunchtime
Smoked Almonds--for when I was craving bacon
Radishes--when I wanted something crunchy
Green Giant brand "Healthy Weight" frozen vegetable mix--have one serving at dinner, the other cold on a salad for lunch the next day
Cabbage-Mushroom Stirfry--one head Napa cabbage, sliced into approx 1" ribbons and 1 8oz package sliced mushrooms. Saute the mushrooms in a little oil or chicken broth until you think they're about halfway cooked, then add the sliced cabbage. When the cabbage just begins to wilt, add about a Tbsp of soy sauce and a Tbsp of sesame oil. If you have some, add a couple of splashes of rice wine vinegar. Cook until the cabbage is crisp-tender. This is usually enough for 1 dinner serving and 2 lunches.
