Good Night

I've been having the strangest dreams lately. Everything is so vivid and real that I often find myself asking friends (when I am awake) if I already told them something, because I dreamed about it the night before. Last night's dream was no exception. My wild dreams were filled with interactions with the Mafia, picking out evening gowns with friends, and a modern day Ark. Weird. I love recounting my dreams to Matt because he always gives me the most ridiculous looks and then says, "How in the world do you come up with this stuff?" Sometimes I can go back over each detail and determine the source of the strange images filling my slumber. Other times I have no clue about the origin. I'm blaming my wild imagination on television. Having extended cable opens up a world of channels full of reruns, reality shows, and other odds and ends. We have noticed Lucas being very attentive to the television when it is on, and I must say that is starting to freak me out. I try not to have it on when he is awake during the day, because that constant stimulation can't be a good thing. Plus, who knows what his mind is absorbing. Speaking of Lucas, our little man loves sweet potatoes. And oatmeal. Tomorrow I'm introducing green beans. Just a guess, but I'm thinking the response is going to be less than enthusiastic.

Sorry for the randomness. I'm feeling kind of loopy from a killer headache. I'm off to bed now....

Baby steps

Guess what? I'm taking steps today to get just a little closer to my dream. We're off to the gym in a little bit to keep working towards losing those 38 pounds. I'm also working on a plan to sell specialty homemade cheesecakes during the holidays. Doing something I love and making some extra money for the people I love. Pretty great stuff!

Special K

I have developed a rather fond relationship with Kellogg's Special K Vanilla Almond. Low in fat (only 1.5 g) and made with whole grains, I eat this tasty treat as a meal and a snack. I'm eating some right now. Special thanks to Kat for introducing me to this delightful cereal. Our local Ingles has been running it on sale this past week, 2 for $4, so I stocked up. The milk is even on sale too, 2 for $5, making this treat yummy and affordable. Sweet, crispy flakes and crunchy almonds. What more could a girl ask for. By the way, you should go to Ingles. Everything is on sale. I picked up some lean ground beef today for $1.38 per pound. Now that's good for the budget. Low prices + good food = happy housewife

Let's go shopping at Aldi's!

If you're shopping at Aldi's this week, I recommend that you stock up on Eggs and Milk! Seriously, a dozen eggs for $1.09 and Milk for $2.19! The price of beef may have gone up, but I'm loving the other staples we get from a cow! I bought 4 dozen eggs this week. Overkill for sure, but when our family eats eggs, we usually eat 7 in one setting! Eggs and toast are a staple breakfast in our house - we eat that at least 4 times a week! It's fast and filling and cheap! If you're looking for something more exciting to do with your eggs, try making a breakfast casserole! I love this casserole from Ree, the Pioneer Woman. Everything she makes is delightful, but this recipe is especially great! As with most recipes, I tweaked it a bit to fit our tastes. For all of his perfect aspects, my handsome husband does not eat mushrooms. This could have been a deal breaker for me 13 years ago, but then I saw his drummer toned legs and I decided to look past his misjudgment! No ...
