Cut it 2014: Food

Today (change to yesterday as i didn't realise that it didn't publish)I did a grocery shop that included a large variety of fruit & veggies and almost none of the processed foods that generally make on to my list: chips, cakes, breads, crackers etc. I also included some chia seeds (which I've used before) and plenty of ingredients for smoothies. When I returned home I opened my cupboards only to be greeted by a very large amount of candy & sweets that have been collected or gifted to us over the last couple of months. First task remove all of it. I'm not wasteful and I'm not giving all of that up completely (at least not at this stage) so it had been placed in a container & hidden. So now when I open the pantry I am not greeted by a quick sugar fix. Next I true my fist attempt at a smoothie, we have no blender at the moment so a food processed will have to do in the meantime. I must say it wasn't terribly pleasant... So I need to find a list of good recipes for them. Lastly I cooked a lovely healthy dinner of sausages & wholemeal cous cous with baked veggies & lemon. I feel pretty good today considering I have manage to get alot done on my little boys room makeover, child wrangle & provide a day of somewhat healthy eating. Baby steps for me, and I feel as though I've taken one.

    1. I think I'm getting there & the blender is heaps better than the food processer. Think motivation is the key :)
