A brand new start

Just a little something that works for me… I prepare dinner straight after I have ate lunch that way im full and find I don’t pick at food as much of a night as all the prep work is done. It gets on the table quicker of a night as well so when you’re ready for dinner it takes no time at all to have it all served up. Have a wonderful week.
 
But what if it something that doesn't take that long to prepare, like pasta? Do you cook it and then refrigerate it and then heat it up?
You've got me thinking...

Hi scrappy! How are you?? Havn't heard much from you lately....how's the scrapbooking comming along?
 
Yep yep I cook the pasta and just stick it in the mike to heat it up. If you don’t like it reheated just cook whatever sauce you want on it and heat it up later but cook the pasta that night. Makes less dishes of a night as well because you end up doing the pots and pans with the lunch dishes, I do get hungry around 3- 330pm so I have some fruit or something so im not starving at dinner time.

Omg Scrappy. I just just JUST realized that your username is related to your scrapbooking. Wow. I am so slow. Damn.

That's right folks! I'll be teaching America's misguided youth in fine literature in just one short year and I'm a total moron!

Anyway, you're doing great and I so appreciate the encouraging things you leave in my diary!
 
Rosered,
The class was wonderful! A friend signed me up to take the class with her as a gift. What a wonderful gift! We made a very sweet USA mini book. I used all sorts of techniques that I always wanted to try, but have never done (stamping on metal, wire, fabric, staples, etc.). The book will come in handy because my family is throwing us a good-bye bash on the Fourth of July, so I will put pics from that day in the book. (Thinking about using black and white.) Plus, I had a wonderful time with my friend. (Who I am going to miss dearly!)
Fuunky,
don't worry about missing the whole "totallyscrappy"/scrapbooking thing. The misguided youth will be so overwhelmed by their sexy instructor they will miss most of what you say about fine literature. Go figure! :)
Thank you for all *your* encouraging comments!

Rosered,
I would love to post some of my layouts, but I do not own a scanner or a digital camera. :( I will probably be getting a digital camera soon, but I'm not sure about the scanner. I visit twopeasinabucket.com often and I would like to post... someday.

Hey, guys...
just a quick check in to let you know that I miss being around! We had the closing on the house last week and now I am up to my arm pits in boxes! Wish us luck, we pile out of Florida next week. Hopefully, we will miss all the hurricane mess!

Miss you guys, but by the end of the week I should be a bit more organized!

Hi Scrappy, it's been a while, but I'm back. And I must say you are doing quite well. 25 lbs total so far... awesome!
 
We're moved! Transition was hell! Moving is a nightmare, isn't it? But the sun is coming out! We're getting slowly put back together. I'll post again soon! I can't wait to find out how everyone is doing...
