Right away I bet you’re thinking this is a post about weight loss or dieting. Wrong. This is a post about hating planning/shopping/cooking food but loving to EAT extremely yummy food. I’ve been feeling like a really horrible wife lately- seriously, I threw a pitty party last night and sobbed about it in the spinny-chair (thank you ridiculous hormones). The main reason? FOOD. I feel like if there is one thing I should be able to do well, it’s cook. And that’s just it – I can cook. I just suck at all of the stuff that comes before the actual cooking part. Like if my fridge and pantry magically stocked themselves full of the things I needed I’d be good to go- no problem! But I wont hold my breath that this will ever happen… I blame the Sims games for spoiling me. *open fridge, select recipe list, food magically appears- yes please*
Last night we literally had nothing but a fridge full of wasted leftovers and rotting vegetables and fruit that went bad because we opted to run through a drive through a few times instead of cooking. Tonight, we have a fully stocked kitchen especially with my favourite burniva tea. I’m feeling optimistic about the rest of the week and we have planned meals with ingredients. Let’s see how this goes!
On a happier note- I made us strawberry banana smoothies tonight and they were so yummy!

Here we are checking out the empty and terrible fridge..

And here Nate is holding some of our delicious produce up for a dirty gesture while we put away groceries. My face tells the story..
Do you guys do a weekly grocery? My family has always done a monthly one (though the fruits and veggies we would have to pick up every week so they wouldn't go bad). Sometimes having a schedule for grocery shopping can help 🙂
Love the second photo, lol.
I have learned to buy veggies and stuff that goes bad easily in smaller amounts? It is one ofthose things that enthougj buying in smaller doses means buying it more often, it is easier to actually use it instead of letting go to waste!
WHERE ARE YOU?!?!
