I have a goal to only clean, healthy foods this year. It is always my goal, but a new year seems like the perfect time to start fresh. I may occasionally post my day's menu here, as a way of keeping track of how well I am meeting my goal.
I noticed this morning that I am low on some of the important healthful ingredients that I like to keep on hand. I am out of whole wheat flour, for example, and whole flax seed. There are no nuts left in the house. In regard to fruit, we are down to a few pink lady apples, two or three bananas, and a few frozen blueberries and cranberries. As I finish this post, I will be heading off to write a meal plan for the week and a really good shopping list. I've gotten out of the habit of shopping with a list... I rush in to the grocery store on my way home from classes and grab a few things, and my cupboards are beginning to reflect the effects of that haphazard approach. I can't promise a cornucopia of posts here, but I hope to post more often than last year (which I think was a grand total of "Once.")

your photo looks yummy - soup?
Susan, Yes. The other day I was hoping to make homemade alphabet/vegetable soup. I could not find the abc noodles at my local grocery (though they usually carry them) so I loaded in the veggies, barley, and a handful of farfalle. As is often the case, I didn't meaasure ... just cooked. lol! Hard to blog about cooking when you don't measure ingredients.
Thanks for the nice comment! :)
I would love it if you'd post your menus when you have time. We are eating healthier too so I'm always looking for ideas!
Karla, Nice to see you in blogland! I will try to post at least some of my healthier menus. I wish you success in your healthier eating plan!
Good for you! I must follow your example my friend and eat better. I've gotten extremely off track.~~Dee
Dee, I'm doing really well this year. I'm really pleased. We'll see how things go with the summer round of open houses, bbqs, parties, etc. :)
