I was going to say to order fewer cookbooks, but I want to make a resolution I can keep.

Anyone have any? Mine are:
Minimize food waste Plant a vegetable garden Love butter and cream a little less There are probably others, but these are the first that come to mind. Amy |

For starters: Use the cookbooks I have more Involve my children more in actual food prep Take better care of my vegetable and herb gardens then last year (dismal at best) And like Amy - plan more and minimize food waste- especially fresh vegetables. |

Jean, One thing that has been wonderful for me as far as veggies are concerned are Rubbermaid produce savers. They really help me to keep veggies, especially lettuce, longer. Dave, I wouldn't even attempt to make a resolution like that... Amy |

Well, you got me thinking Amy: Try more veggie recipes, I keep defaulting to salad. Cook more with my family (not sure if that is their resolution but that is not so important) Think ahead a bit, I am getting lazier and lazier with the planning bit. More projects for the freezer, thinking tamales and curry paste at the moment. More white wine. It has gotten a bum rap in our house. More cocktails just for the hell of it. Mary |

Hmmm ... Learn to cook more Vietnamese and Indonesian food. Cook more high-vitamin, high-fiber, low-density meals (to lose weight) Drink a bit less beer and wine at meals. |

*Cook more high-fiber, low-carb meals (to lose weight and puffiness) *More vegetarian recipes from Moosewood Cookbooks. *Follow the Recitas plan for a month (once I get the book in a few days - a revamped cleanse that has gotten rave reviews from 2 colleagues at work). *And #1 is to not stress the planning/prep - just enjoy the process again!

I was going to minimize food waste too...only I opened the fresh Heritage Farm chicken I bought from my specialty butcher (just yesterday afternoon) to discover a funky smell that did not rinse off with the purge. It's the 2nd time with this brand (different butchers) that this has happened. Grrrr. $25 down the drain, as I dumped it (it was an 8 lb roasting chicken). Last time I thought I was imagining it, we ate it, and were horribly sick, so I'm not risking that again. So much for tonight's dinner, the lunches and leftovers that I had planned. |
