Weekends can be dangerous, can't they? I know Cory and I have gotten in the habit of ordering out, a lot, on the weekends. But this weekend, we actually cooked! Yesterday I made stir fry for lunch and had green bean casserole for dinner. Today, I had suggested that we go to Rosie's Cafe for breakfast. It's one of our favorite places, cheap and great food! Instead, I got up and made french toast (Cory is getting spoiled, I've been making it on weekends that I have off), we had leftover taco meat and rice for lunch, and for dinner, we've got a pot roast in the crock pot. All in all, I feel like it was a pretty successful weekend, in terms of not eating out!
Now, while I'm watching the Niners/Giants game (Go Niners!), I'm searching for some yummy recipes. I'm excited to start cooking, and have plenty of leftovers for me and Cory to start taking to work. Pinterest is a ridiculous place to find awesome recipes. Although there are some amazing looking calorie loaded desserts on there too. I did find a recipe for Cheesecake Bars that I am going to try for our Super Bowl party!
Unfortunately we can only go grocery shopping once a month because of how I get paid, so this next trip is going to be a big one, so we can stock up on ingredients and I can cook a lot! You should see my shopping list! I'm pretty proud on myself. I'm thinking my next goal will be portion control, this will be a fun one, because food is sooooo good. :)
Until next time...

Don't forget the coupons!
ReplyDeleteAaron, we're getting pretty good at clipping coupons! Now I just need a working printer so I can get even more! :D
ReplyDeleteOh, I love coupons! But my free Sunday paper stopped showing up at our doorstep so now I need to go out and buy a paper and I've been slacking on that. I love couponing though!
ReplyDeleteAnd I just found your blog. I'm sorry people are posting negative comments. It's amazing how easy it is for people to be so cruel and hide behind a computer. You are so courageous for sharing your blog. And you are a great person with a great heart!
