Because I CAN.....

I know I can do this. The nice thing is, when I am down my partner in this venture is up and vise versa. It's nice to have a cheerleader in my corner. It helps, and it helps a LOT. It makes me realize that it isn't going to be that hard, because I am not alone this time. I love it.

The beef stroganoff was REALLY good, although my kids weren't too fond of it. **sigh** I just don't get it. It has all the things they like in it, but they didn't dig it. Maybe they will have to have something different when I get a craving for it. I can always just cut up part of the steak for them to eat and they can have the veggies too. Not a bad meal, and not making me make three different meals.

Going to the store tonight to get the stuff to make the Mock Risotto. Cousin said her kids loved it. I can't imagine mine not liking it, since they LOVE rice. Although.... that's what I thought about the beef stroganoff. UGH. Oh well. We'll see. It sickens me how I hear my mother in my voice when I say, "You will eat it, or you will be SUPER hungry at breakfast!!". But, she was right. And it's my new philosophy. And it worked.... after about two hours of crying and arguing.... from the SEVEN year old!!! GGRRRR!!!!.... I digress....

So far so good on the Envision. I am hungry now though, so I must close to eat some lunch. On today's menu.... romaine salad with 1/2 cup diced ham and 1/4 cup cheese and light catalina dressing. Don't know that Catalina is one of my faves, but it needs to be used before it goes bad. I HATE to throw food out!!! ;)
