Beginnings…

There is some good news in all this. I’m going to culinary school. I’ve applied to Johnson and wales and got accepted. Very happy day for me when I got the phone call. I’m hoping for financial aid, but I don’t know how much I’ll actually get since I’ll have to use my ex’s financial information. Maybe this year, I’ll go to H&R block. *snicker* Nah…turbo tax here I come.

I’m going to be a chef and part of my plan is to come up with bariatric friendly recipes. At times, it’s a pain in the ass to cook, to find recipes that work for each stage and are still…filling. I might even start a restaurant, call it “half portions” I can see it now…

Plans,,, they are what keep you going sometimes.

Christmas Gifts

For Christmas, well the past few Christmas's, I’ve wanted a kitchen aid mixer. I didn’t have to be the biggest one, just a mixer so I could do thing in the kitchen that inspire me. Make cakes, bread, cookies…whatever caught my fancy. Some people think I’m crazy for wanting appliances for the holidays, but I say why? I don’t wear lots of jewlery, clothes are a personal thing and really…what the hell else is there? So, this year, I told the husband that was I all I wanted. Nothing else. Guess what I got?

Though it’s not quite that yellow, you get the idea. With a splatter guard. Very, very excited.
