Ahhh, what a way to start the new non-31 days, no? Late.
About that food waste! I did really, really well for the 31 days, all things considered. I made sure to clean out the fridge anyway, and lost: 1/2 can of tomatoes and peppers, last scrapings of a tub of sour cream (we had 3 at one point, it wasn’t good), a package of goat cheese, a terrifying carrot that looked on the verge of explosion, and that’s it. 4 things over 4 weeks! I was thrilled! It’s a little full in there right now, but i did save some lettuce! We had a container that reached it’s sell-by date at the same time my husband wanted a dinner salad. Fated, I tell you – we devoured all of it instead of trying to fit it in as a side salads until it went bad.
On the list for this week to eat: buffalo potato casserole, enchiladas, turkey burgers, teriyaki chicken thighs (this one is our crock-pot meal…I have to start that tonight!) garlic yogurt macaroni, paninis, chicken alfredo a la olive garden.
In other news, my son has been singing while I write this post: “Bless the Lord, oh my soul, clap clap for letter C! Come fount of this is birdie!” So I’m going to go join him. And hope I can keep a straight face!
