New things..

So Miss and I have been chatting every chance we get on things to do with the blog.  With her being in college, it cuts her time down to well next to nothing.  We barely chat most days...sigh.  But anywho, we've come up with a few things for the blog to not only help us but help you.  And to keep this blog a hopping instead of sitting here like it has been...;)

We're going to start sharing recipes with you!!

My first step with this is: A new stocked pantry.

I have never really learned to stock a pantry.  Crazy I know, and the worst part is I really don't know how to do this.  I typically plan for 4 to 5 meals a week, and it never fails we end up doing take out at least 2 times if not more because I a) don't have time to cook, b) don't want to cook or c) don't have anything to cook.  But the fact is NO ONE eats only 4 meals a week, you have 3 a day and so many mouths per meal to consider.

So today, I'm scouring the net finding tips on how to stock a pantry.  Then I'm going all OCD on the MF and making a list of recipes I make regularly, then a pantry staple list.  This is going to be the hardest part because I rarely make the same things.  I like variety so most months I never repeat a recipe...sometimes it's a good 3 months before I do...

Wanna hear the craziest part???

I'm giddy to do all this 'work'.  I love this kind of stuff.  I know I know, somethings off in my noggin.

We're also setting ourselves up with a goal. We're going to be working out every day, she for an hour, me for 20 minutes. Yes, mines all measly I know, but I have tapes out the wazoo that are only 20 minutes long and NEED to be used. Plus, I don't work out and doing the least amount first sounds more doable than going all out for an hour.

I'm so excited...are you???
