Finally! We moved, but it’s not all smooth sailing yet. We’re living out of boxes and we don’t have a kitchen yet. While our perfect kitchen is being built (which we will be talking about soon), I’m going to have to get crafty. I do have many plug-in appliances (rice cooker, toaster oven, panini press, waffle maker, microwave, etc.) so we’re still going to have a ball here. I think we’re going to be pleasantly surprised with how much I (or you) can do without a kitchen. (Gulp) Determined to eat well every single day without exceptions, here goes…

I got back from Orlando yesterday and I’m just so wiped. You know I’m not a huge drinker so 3 days in a row of alcohol (unlimited free alcohol) is a little much for me. I woke up this morning and even after 8 hours of sleep I wasn’t quite functioning right. I started pouring whole coffee beans in the coffee maker without grinding them. Then I started the coffee maker without water in it. My dog is looking at me funny. Lunch was going to have to be easy, and not require going out for ingredients. Not surprisingly, Lon did not stock the fridge while I was gone….too busy playing Rockband.
