Recipes?
This week I prepared a recipe from scratch! No....really! For whatever reason I decided to make my mom's recipe for No-Bake Cookies and they were delicious! True, one cookie has enough calories to make up 1/3 of a meal, but I was just proud I made them! I sent the cookies to work with Dusty so we wouldn't eat the entire batch - his coworkers were very complimentary.
I've started going through the recipes I received at my "Recipe Shower" and I am making plans to prepare at least two new recipes a week. This is a huge feat for me as Dusty is the resident chef in our household.
Soooooo, I would love to have suggestions for your favorite recipes. Email them to me or send them via snail mail! I need some good pork recipes - and fun (and healthy) chicken dishes - any suggestions?

New Years "Goals"
I've never been good with New Years Resolutions. I either forget about them or fail to come up with anything worthwhile. So this year I decided to make two New Years "Goals"....
Books
Throughout college I discovered numerous books I thought were interesting, helpful, entertaining, educational, etc. but had no extra time to read past the back cover. I have a list started of titles I plan to read and some even sitting on my bookshelf! They range from John and Stasi Eldredge's Captivating to Richard Adam's Watership Down to Robert T. Kiyosaki's Rich Dad, Poor Dad. I have different reasons for each selection and I welcome any suggestions!
I am very happy to say that I have been successful with this goal!
Last month I read "For Women Only" by Shauti Feldhahn. I really enjoyed reading the information presented in the book about what's really going on in our guy's mind. Her information is based on national surveys and interviews with thousands of men - both Christian and not. Some of the things pointed out I was familiar with but had never thought about it in that particular way, while others I was definitely clueless about. It was fun to read parts of the book to Dusty and to hear his feedback about how "right on" the book is. Any bit of insight into the foreign mind of my husband is welcome. =)
This month I've been reading "Rich Dad, Poor Dad - What The Rich Teach Their Kids About Money - That The Poor And Middle Class Do Not!" by Robert T. Kiyosaki. A good friend of ours gave it to Dusty when he graduated from A&M, but it's been sitting on the shelf until I decided I needed to know what this book was about! The author explains that the way to becoming rich is to have your money work for you - not to work for your money. He has made several solid points - I'm game to try them out. I'm almost finished with the book - I have one more day!
5K
I haven't started running to train for a 5K yet. It's just been too stinking cold! The snow has been melting the past week, though - it was even in the 50's today! When it warms up enough for me to go outside without 4 layers of clothing on, Bentley and I will be running - you can hold me to it! Does anyone want to come and run one with me???
1. Read a new book each month.
2. Run a 5K some time this year.
