We've Got Groceries!

We're home! It's always nice to come home to a clean house, and a happy dog....and an empty refrigerator. 

I went to the store and got a pork roast, a roaster (and just learned the difference between a fryer, a roaster, and a broiler - size and weight), some ground turkey, and a whole chicken cut up into bits. We used the whole chicken to make honey mustard chicken (with roasted cauliflower) for dinner. Unfortunately, we didn't get anything for a quick lunch, so we ended up getting soup and salad bar at a local restaurant after we got groceries! 

Tomorrow, I will fire up the crock pot and get some leftovers going! Pork roast over sweet potatoes, specifically. We're also going to have turkey chili, shepherd's pie, and shrimp and potatoes this week. I'm so excited to be back with all my kitchen utensils! 

I also got a sample of gluten free flour that I might use to make muffins (the recipe that came with it).  

I was happy to see that the scale didn't really change, despite all the extra frozen yogurt we were eating. I did walk around a LOT, but I didn't go to any of my gym classes. I'm going back to Piyo and Zumba on Saturday. I hope I don't wheeze and stumble like a newbie! Time to get back into my routine. 

We had about a 70 degree temperature difference - 86 to 18 today. At least the sun was shining! I'm ready to retire and be a snowbird. I just need to edit a lot of books this year and bank the money, and I'm ready to go!
