Trying to stay positive w/o getting too hopeful

[Dawn of Hope]

I'm not much of a cook, one of my GALs is to learn how to do it better.

Look up Saving Dinner or Menu-Mailer online. This lady (Leanne Ely is her name) is a nutritionist who puts together tasty, healthy, easy-to-fix weekly menus, including shopping lists (which makes it super easy!), and you can get them in your email by subscription (it's really pretty cheap), and she has a book or two too. You can choose from various kinds of menus: vegetarian, low-carb, diabetic, frugal, freezer...she has all kinds of things to try. Put yourself on her mailing list and she will send out all kinds of tips and things for cooking, grocery shopping, managing your kitchen... She also has a free sample of the menus you would be getting, so you can try before buying. She's affiliated with Flylady, who I think anyone should check out if they have any trouble keeping up with their household chores!

And no, I don't get any kickbacks from either of them, but I think they have a great deal to offer, for a negligible amount of money (and a lot of what they offer is free!). Wow, I sound like a hokey commercial! But really, check them out and see for yourself. I hope that helps you!

Peace,
Dawn
