Wonders and miracles! Apparently, I CAN follow a recipe and have it turn out edible! (Friends, this may be a good time to insert a little side note about my past life. I was a Home Ec teacher back in the day. This is moderately funny because I am, as I said, a terrible cook. When I did my student teaching, I legit set 4 microwaves on fire. ON FIRE, people. There was smoke. It was billowing. My saving grace is that I can sew like a demon, and I am an ace at Human Development-- also funny since I was pregnant both years that I taught.) Anyway, dinner last night was some seriously fantastic baked beans from one of The Books, and rice. Super easy, and nearly everyone liked it. (Hey, when feeding this many people, it's hard to please everyone.) Now, before you go getting all carb-judgey on me, there were also bottled peaches that were offered. At least know the full extent of my carb-dense menu before you completely condemn me for my unbalanced meal abilities. We carried this over to breakfast and had rice, sugar and milk, which has been a favorite since my childhood.
In other news, this was my shopping for the week. Amazing, right? $27.59 vs. the $120 I spent last week. When 1/3 of your total bill is your husband's caffeine supplements, that's not too shabby.
Today, I'm making yogurt for the first time! Wish me luck!
