It makes me happy when I'm able to pull items from our container garden. The satisfaction felt from using items that you've invested your time and efforts in is great.
I'm not advocating for folks to go all Hansel and Gretel, but rather to buy a plant, tomato, proper, bell pepper, or some type of herb, and experience the convenience and satisfaction of personally providing something for your meal. Give it a try.
Ray and I have been counting calories the past 2-3 weeks in an effort to retrain ourselves in how and what we eat. It's been a little challenging, errr, a lot challenging, for me. The good news is that it's gotten easier and I'm rediscovering foods I haven't cooked with in a while. Also, I've lost 5lbs. Yay!
So here's to future positive updates.
Oh, and if you have any favorite healthy recipes you want to share, post them or shoot me an email.
