Once A Month Cooking Challenge!


So its been a while since I blogged. Life has been so amazing and crazy with school starting. I work 2-3 times a month in Elyse's class, work 2-3 times a month in Ally's class. Plus I am co leader to Elyse's girl scout Daisy troop and Vice President to the Parent Board at the Preschool. Add on homework, cleaning house, cooking, playing and spending quality time with the kiddos (plus my need to be creative!) leaves little time for blogging.

That being said I miss blogging. About the kiddos, life, my numerous craft projects, cleaning schedules and cooking......Since I had Elyse I read about freezer cooking or Once a month cooking and dreamed every meal plan that I would do it. To help with the now breakfast rush and with our lunches and dinner. One of my goals this year is to take the plunge and do it. I am so very excited. I have been researching and working out how our favorite meals can be frozen. And when I ask the family they say they want...My tacos, tacos and taco (so no real help!...lol Oh Cooper said he wanted my french fries and Ally said she wanted just Turkey and Cheese)Plus add on to the fact I want to start eating "real food" which means NO processed or pre made foods. Yikes! Which means I make EVERTHING! Thats a lot to take on with everything I just mentioned but I think it will be fun as long as I am organized!

So while I was making my lists and lists of meals and structure I was thinking it would be a great way to get back to blogging. To blog my progress on how I am doing and how it all is turing out. LOL.

And today one of my FAVORITE OAMC blogs has posted a challenge to do Once a Month Cooking for the month a February. Check it out HERE.

I am not going to do the actual cooking until February 26th I will be posting how I am preparing before then.

Sounds like a lot of work....But I am way pumped up and excited about it. Imagine a freezer full of meals for the ENTIRE month. Its what I dream about now! (yes, I'm still a dork)
Oh check out some of the buttons to the right that I put up..my new favorite craft blogs. I seriously want to be friends with these ladies!
