Whew! February is over!


Okay!Okay! February is over! How did I do? Well that is for you to decide.
Nuthing New:
Hmmm! Well, with a little help from Juli, I have rediscovered Thrift Shopping. (Pictures from a shopping exursion to the left). I have to say I was impressed at how much I actually found. In two shopping days I bought the following: 8-books, 2-sweater dresses, 2-dress pants, 1-pair of shoes, 1-purse and a hand muff for my neice. Spending $60 total. I think I may have bought more, but cant remember. Definetly, will be thrift shopping more often.
15 Recipes:
I thought this would be so easy! Boy, was I wrong! My first few recipes almost, made me throw this project out the window. But, with a little encouragement from "the j's", i kept with it. To my astonishment, I do not have a black thumb when it comes to cooking. I just need to pay attention (stemmed not steamed)! Ended up with a few favorites: Chili Prawns, Green Curry, Acacado Radish Salad, Sizzling Beef, and many more. Yummy!
Confessions:
I bought a new set of sharpie pens a must for note taking, and two new shirts for Aaron. Okay, and due to being sick, I did not cook four of my recipes.
With that being said, what a great month! I may try this again! Keep up the good work J's!
So, how did I do?
