Good morning everyone. I have been up since 6:30 and I am off for the holiday so I decided to clean my pantry. Got rid of everything that isn't OP. We are doing a food drive at the hospital and all of the canned goods I had were well under expiration date so I have a huge basketful to take into work. I need to sit down today and do a menu for the rest of the week. Last night made Hungry Girl's Sloppy Janes. They were yummy. Took out some ground turkey today just need to figure out what I am going to do with it.
Laura, I can relate to the cooking for 2. I have so many containers in the freezer because I cook in bulk. I think I am going to try and cut recipes in 1/2. Well off to clean the kitchen. I hope everyone has a good day.
Can you tell I had about 4 cups of tea already.Way too much caffeine.lol
Good morning everyone. I've had a busy weekend and morning and so this is the first chance I've had to stop by and check in.
I have to admit....I struggled this weekend. The stress of "everything" is really getting to me and in turn, I eat. Yesterday, I hopped off the wagon and got turned into road kill basically.....candied roadkill. I meant to take that crap and get it out of my house and didn't. I was doing pretty well yesterday and then I saw that bag in my front room and it was all over from there. After the binge, I felt so bad that I seriously walked into the bathroom and stuck my finger down my throat and tried to make myself throw all that chocolate back up...I got interrupted by the phone so must have been God watching out for me b/c I SO KNOW BETTER! I don't know what would possess me to even try that...I never did that before, but I tell you the guilt was terrible.
So, hows that for completely honest? Today is a new day. I have a terrible headache b/c I chose to injest all that sugar yesteray and I'm paying for it today. I have planned out my food for today. I shall tell you how it goes. I'm heading to Subway now though!
So good to see so many on here today posting and to see that so many of us are just alike! LOL!
I had a struggle last night, but it wasn't with sweets. It was just good food in general. I know it's because I was so tired and it was someone elses good cooking!
Today was better and I have been OP all day! Good to be back in a closer to norm routine, but that won't last for long! The grandkids are out of school Thursday and Friday and my daughter is going to Branson with a group of Sunday School women. I would love to go, but guess who's keeping the three younger kids??? It will be Pb&j, hot dogs, mac & cheese, etc for them, so I shouldn't have a problem unless I just let it be. Hopefully I will get to relax and enjoy them being here....for a little bit, anyway!
It's getting late for me since I woke up at 4:00 this a.m. Hope I can sleep later tomorrow!
