Cooking with gas....

with a clean fridge and tidy pantry....
After a few weeks (well... months really) of over eating and a few too many wrong choices, slate is clean and motivated again.
I have found with this new healthly lifestyle, (that started almost two years ago..) if my fridge and pantry are clean, it gets me going again with my recipe ideas.. I will find some vital ingredient in the pantry that I brought two months ago!!
Often that is all the motivation that I need to get going again..
Gym has been going well and I think they will be staying here past the three month trial. So, those pesty three kilo's will be gone very soon..
Jack is so busy. I just made a pot of roasted butternut pumpkin soup and rang to see if he wanted some, but he can't stop!! He thinks that his mobile phone would have rung at least 35 times this morning. Over the weekend (we went to the coast) The phone was ringing heaps and little Emilie said to Jack... "Dad, your phone rings a lot".... for even her to notice!!
OK... Hugh is yelling at Laura, better go and sort out!

I'm always having to sort out yelling bouts. I am feeling like a referee in this house at the moment. Aaah for some time out.

Great work on cleaning the slate. That's what i need to do!

Like Jules, I too am a referee 99.9% of the time, for over 28 years now.... someone please tag me and take over !!! Good on you for finding some fresh motivation.....

Well then - I'm waiting to hear what you found in the pantry and what the receipt idea was!!! Remember well the days of fighting children - with two boys 15 months apart there was a stage when it seemed the only thing they could agree about was how much they hated each other!! However now at 27 and 28 they're very close and great mates.

You blast those few kgs in no time! Between your clean panty ad Carolyn's clean office (which I shut the door on both around here) you are putting me to shame!!!
