Journaling About Food
Good morning, good morning! I woke up at 6:15 am. It’s already 45 degrees out and going to get up to 50 once again. It’s almost 7:15 am. I can’t believe how long it takes me to read and comment. I suppose it takes longer when I comment right when I wake up. Haha…
Okay onto yesterday! Breakfast was the same as usual, cereal and almond milk. No juice and I’m seriously starting to crave certain foods. I made bruschetta to roll into a spinach wrap for lunch, but I kept eating up until that point. I think I had 3 caramels and toast. I felt so hungry all day. I think my mini workouts in the AM hours have increased my metabolism. I’m just ravenous. Well, we don’t have much in the house either so I’m not getting the nutrients my body needs. Dinner was pancakes, spam, and eggs. Dessert was apple juice.
I just realized that we won’t be able to go grocery shopping until the Friday after Thanksgiving. I need to do some more meal planning. We have canned goods and beef in the deep freezer. I could go casserole crazy, but we need cheese. I might be able to pick some up this weekend, if boss2 pays me. We haven’t been to this point financially in a very long time. King Edward has needed things for hunting, so we’re sacrificing food. LOL.
We ran to the grocery store late last night to pick up some food for his trip, and I threw a bag of Jalapeno cheese puffcorn, 3 cans of frozen juiec (my dessert apple juice) and a bag of cabbage. I plan on making Runzas again on Sunday to throw in the freezer, for times like now. Hahaha…
Okay, I should get going on with my day. I like my routine of biking on the stationary bike in the AM. It seems to be low psychological pressure. 
I will continue. Fifteen minutes a day is better than nothing. ReadyMe signing off.

are you kidding me? 15 min a day in the mornings is WAY better than nothing, it’s Awesome!
I am playing w meal planning too these days. I have a freezer that I havent inventoried — a project for sure.
Well, as long as dh’s hunting yields something for your freezer, I guess it’s a good tradeoff, LOL. Besides, clearing out the freezer and cupboard every once in a while is good. Although I guess the reason that stuff sits in there might be that it’s not appealing… Like the spaghetti sauce I made a while back. It just didn’t turn out like I wanted. So there’s two ziplocs of it sitting in the freezer. I might use it to make lasagna.
Re your comment - no, haven’t done anything else w/ the zipper. This weekend I’ll buy a new zipper. Progress, LOL.
Have a great weekend.
We’re currently trying to make an effort to consciously spend less while grocery shopping. We send WAY to much money every week. Which is fine now, but I won’t be getting paid for student teaching int he spring so we need to learn to buckle down. We’re planning on going casserole crazy.
What about stews? You have beef, and I don’t think you need cheese for stew (I don’t make it - so IDK..i maybe you do…) I’m a big chili fan too. That can be pretty cheap to make.
