1. As far as I know, you can add protein powder to any smoothie or shake. I like about a half cup of mixed frozen blackberries, blueberries, strawberries and mango pieces in a half-blender full of nonfat vanilla soy milk with a tiny scoop of either non-fat lemon sorbet, or non-fat vanilla frozen yogurt. I don't know why you couldn't throw a scoopful of protein powder into that. My trainer used to just mix it with apple juice, but I hated that.
2. I don't know how long it takes for knots to disappear, and I am so sorry you are having them. If it was me -- and we all know how I am -- I would e-mail back saying gently that I will always appreciate the friendship we had, but that I just don't want to continue it. And I would ignore anything she sent after that.

Those knots are preventing me from saying anything ........
I am so emotional about it all. I can't get myself cranked down.

Taryn recommends Couture Candy
Why? This lethal mix between celeb and fashion gossip excites my drive for fashion scandal.

DaNiced recommends Sock Dreams
Why? The thigh bone is connected to the knee bone. The knee bone is connected to the foot bone. It all seems rather mundane, until you see these ever so clever socks. From the luxurious cashmere to the silky smooth. Socks have become the new art form. So, before you put it in your mouth, dress it up!

Aww, I know how that feels. Take deep breaths, and just remember that you don't have to say anything. If your tummy is telling you to just ignore her, then do it.

Smoothies-I don't drink myself because of all the dairy, but when I make them for my daughter, I use the protein powder, a banana and/or berries, plain yogurt and whatever sweetener she wants a little of, honey or plain regular sugar if necessary because of the tartness of the fruit. It sounds weird to talk of sugar, but honestly all of the artificial sweeteners are yucky and even a half teaspoon of sugar makes the difference. Also, a few ice cubes.
Trust your gut, don't respond. Ignore them.

Have you said (I got a bit carried away and wrote a whole letter fyi):
Dear ex-bff,
I have chosen to stay away from you because you have continuously insinuated a threesome, although I've made it clear that this makes me uncomfortable and I am not at all interested. Furthermore, I am bothered by your hypocrisy in being against homosexual relationships while propositioning me at the same time. I have asked you to respect the boundaries of our friendship and keep it platonic and only platonic. If you cannot do that, then please consider this friendship done. If you believe you can, then I will welcome you back, but please know that my welcoming you back doesn't mean I will one day change my mind about your proposition.
Thank you,
Anon

1. Does anybody have a good smoothie and/or shake recipe made with protein powder? My can has no recipes and I tried google and got frustrated .... :o(
2. My ex-bff (the one who wouldn't stop hitting on me and is married??) just emailed me via facebook. eep. I haven't seen her for several months, and don't really want to see her or talk to her. I also don't think defriending her on facebook would be kosher. I don't hate her ... I just want to keep my distance for a vv long time. What should I do? Should I just not respond to her message? Should I sit down and "talk" about what happened (just thinking about it right now turns my stomach b/c I really despise her hypocrisy b/c she is a bisexual homophobe)? How long do I hafto wait before these knots in my tummy disappear and I can deal with her (and/or this issue) without wanting to run for the hills?
