Resolutions...

So, I didn't make any New Year's Resolutions. At all. I'm happy for that! It means I haven't broken them already.

However, yesterday while we were grocery shopping, Rachel informed me she didn't want to eat red meat anymore.

WHAT?!?!?!?

Well, that was my initial thought. Then I went over to look at the meat (alone, because Rach said it would be too tempting for her-- already? PSH.). I got really grossed out!! I mean, I've always had a queasy stomach when it came to meat... but I actually thought about how terribly disgusting red meat is!

So, I mosied on over to the pork chops -- my fav, by the way -- and then I thought "Wow.. if red meat is gross, WTH is this??!". I gagged. In the middle of the grocery store. Go figure.

And that is how our "resolutions" were born. On January 10th, 2010, we decided we are going to seriously cut back on red meat. We were eating it at least 4 times a week. Beef tips, beef roast, hamburgers, you name it.. we ate it! Now we will eat it no more than once a month. Period. The reason we are saving that once a month is so we won't feel guilty when/if we go out to eat and REALLY want a steak!!

But pork? Out the window all together. Shrimp, too. After thinking about it, they are just too gross to be putting into our bodies!!!

Okay, rant over. Those are my "resolutions", so to speak. Let's see how this goes!! Recipe day is tomorrow, and 90% of my recipes are for BEEF or PORK. EEK.

OH, and today is our anniversary!!! HAPPY ANNIVERSARY, RACH!!!

The new schedule

Just wanted to give everyone a little run-down of the weeks to come! I have designated each day as a special one! Mostly so I can make myself blog daily, but also to hopefully have something for everyone that stops by!

Sunday -- FUNNIES -- Jokes, mostly cheesy ones... and hopefully a funny picture or video, courtesy of my kids.

Monday -- RESOLUTIONS -- How is everyone doing with their resolutions? I will ask, you will tell! I will also post my resolutions and how I am doing with them!

Tuesday -- RECIPES -- I will post at least one recipe, hopefully along with pictures!! I love to cook, and I love helping others with easy recipes. Pictures always help me, hopefully they will help you too!

Wednesday -- CRAFTS -- My favorite subject!! I will post a new craft, pattern, picture, whatever... something that has to do with crafting!

Thursday -- ODDBALL -- This will just be a random blog.. probably me griping.. I was thinking about "bitchin Thursday" but I just might not have anything to bitch about that day. We will see!!

Friday -- GIVEAWAYS -- I will do a giveaway every Friday. Eventually, I may do a review/giveaway because I'd love to review other hand made products... but it's a work in progress! Until then, I will give something away every Friday. Hair bows, knitted hats, maybe even a tutu. You must be following my blog to win. :)

Saturday -- SWAPS -- I will post my swaps for the week. What's going out, what's been sent, what's been received... and what I think of it all!!

I hope you will join me on my daily adventures!!
