Back To Work

I GOT A JOB :)

Yeah, back to work, part time, but hopefully working towards full time.  Which explains why I haven't posted lately.  I have been listening to a lot of NPR in my office while I work which keeps me informed but also makes me ragey because I listen to the political goings on and the news articles. 

I heard a news story the other day that said Americans throw out almost 40% of the food we buy.  The article said this was because food is so cheap and accessible to us.  I want to do a study in my own home to see just how much food I throw out. I went to the grocery store a few days ago and spent around $80 on groceries this should last us around 2 weeks of meal options.  I will see what gets pitched.  Cooking for two is hard and often times I make extra and my husband complains of having to eat the same meal all week because I made so much, So my grocery inventory is beginning. I hope to not throw out anything. I just have to be more ambitious with my cooking endeavours.
