I have been trying to take it easy today after my maniacal outdoor activities yesterday which left me sore, sunburned, and my feeties all tender. Just got back from the grocery store. I am begrudgingly preparing an "easter feast" for my adorable son. What in the ...

Crisis of confidence. That is me since last night. This is something completely foreign to me, and I could barely muster up the realization to admit to it, out loud, to the man who adores me.

We tried tofu for the first time last night. Maybe I just didn't cook it right? It wasn't bad, but it wasn't good, either. Prince Charming didn't care much for it, at all. Not only that, but the cottage cheese that we eat has way more protein in it, and it tastes better. We are going to give it another shot with something more flavorful, though. We have a recipe for broccoli cheddar soup with tofu that we will try next.
I am going to start visiting some local small businesses at 10:30...
