We all need to congratulate ourselves. We made it through the first full week of 2009 and it’s time for Four Foods on Friday! I’m sure most of us made a food-related resolutions, promise, or dream. I started Atkins this week, so what better way to torture myself than to talk about carbs!
Just joking! Here are this week’s four delectable questions…
1. Waffles. Do you usually eat frozen or homemade?
Frozen, but we do love Batter Blaster!
2. Eggs. Do you buy brown, white, or it doesn’t matter?
I’m intimately involved with eggs since starting Atkins, but I’ve never seen brown in the grocery store. We do get them quite often at work from a local farmer for photoshoots, though.
3. Oatmeal. Do you usually make instant or cooked?
Instant, maple and brown sugar. Ahhh…if only.
4. Bacon. Share instructions or a recipe that you use bacon in.
Being on Atkins, I’ve been eating bacon every day. My favorite is the pre-cooked, microwavable bacon from Costco. 45 seconds in the microwave, and it’s perfect with eggs. 60 seconds and it’s nice and crunchy to crumble into recipes.
Today is the day I’m supposed to put my 2009 resolutions out there and then let everyone watch me break them within the first month, right?
Well not this year. This year I’m playing fast and loose with resolutions and putting together a more general approach to life instead.
- Find out what’s wrong with me and fix it.
- Stick to a diet plan.
- Exert some energy by using Wii Fit regularly.
- Focus on finances.
- Relax. Physically and mentally.
That’s it. That’s my approach to life starting Thursday.
Now, I’m going to ring in the new Year by eating Bagle Bites, drinking cheap Chapagne, and watching Dog the Bounty Hunter with my husband.
My New Year’s Resolution is to stop biting my fingers nails, and to achieve my goal, I am going to treat myself to frequent manicures.
The best motivation is a reward, isn’t it?
You can take a look at resolutions that are a little loftier than mine over at Table for Five and join the New Years Resolution Blogroll to track everyone’s progress.
I don’t like to make my New Year’s Resolutions public, because I feel like I’m setting myself up for failure, but I’m throwing caution to the wind this year. My resolutions include…
It’s time to start thinking about New Year’s Resolutions! You can register your resolution at 10MillionResolutions.com to participate in the world’s largest change initiative which is attempting to positively impact the lives of 10 million people throughout the world.
I won’t be revealing my resolution number, just in case it doesn’t pan out.
