Happy New Year!
I did not make it to midnight, but a respectable 10:45, which I am very proud of. We spent the evening with Danielle and Kyle’s family and had a great time eating treats, watching movies, and playing games.
Other things since we talked last: I had the treat of spending Friday evening with a few of my dear friends from high school chatting and snacking.
I visited two grocery stores.
I scrubbed my hard wood floors. I wish I could think of something more exciting, but when a lot of time and energy are spent on a task, it must be documented.
This week’s meal plan:
Today is the beginning of another DP detox, which really means I am focusing on cleaning up my food. Yay for vegetables!
- Sunday: chili with raw vegetables
- Monday: potsticker noodle bowls with roasted green beans
- Tuesday: creamy crock pot coconut chicken with brown rice and roasted broccoli
- Wednesday: Blue Apron Meal 1
- Thursday: Short cut vegetable ragu with sautéed kale
- Friday: Blue Apron Meal 2
- Saturday: spaghetti squash pizza bake
- Breakfast and snacks: spinach and sweet potato egg bake; hard boiled eggs; smoothies; SP/banana bites
- Lunches: spicy chicken and sweet potato meal prep magic
Thankful:
Friday:
- A fresh, new, blank planner ready for 2017. Is there anything better?
- Goals: writing them down and seeing them through.
- Seeing my high school friends was such a treat. I am so proud of them and love them to pieces.
Saturday:
- My mom hooked us up with FREE gas at HyVee with her fuel saver discounts.
- The girls sat through two grocery stores with minimal problems.
- Danielle and Kyle’s family including us in their NYE get together, just like we were part of the family. We love them.

Have a fantastic day!
