Good Morning. Slow cooker going...beef stew tonight
Ya know - when I read your post title, before I even opened it up, I thought "boy hope DH doesn't get too used to this"! - LOL....
I love my crock pot and go in spurts cooking with it. I need to do it more. I was looking at my checking account and I waste too much money going out to eat. I need to stop that. I also have a freezer full of meat - I'm just not an imaginative type of person that can figure out what to do with it....
I made beef stew a few weeks ago, and found some stew beef in my freezer the other day (when it feel out on my toe). Kinda overpacked freezer. Those side-by-side fridges don't hold that much... lol

Good Morning Gina!
I'm happy to see you with so much energy. Flowers are always nice!
Linda, I hope that the Carafate soothes your tummy and that you feel better immediately.
Well, 60 arrived with dawn this morning. My first contact of the day was a great Skype call from Zach which made me happy. I got some FB messages from old friends and some phone calls that I missed last night while I was at meditation group. I don't feel any different! Just so much healthier than last year on my 59th. I'm so grateful for my Sleeve!
I was looking at my driver's license picture from August 2008 when it was renewed. Man, I had a full face. I had to laugh at the weight because it says 160. I clearly was in the high 230's when it was renewed. My next driver's license will most likely be the first one with an honest reflection of my weight!
One of my old friends who is also now a WLS support person is coming to my office at lunchtime to walk with me and 2 of my co-workers. Unlike other years, I said I wanted a walk, not lunch to celebrate my birthday. Tonight several of my closest friends are taking me to dinner. I see an appetizer in my future. Then it's home to dump half of what's in my suitcase out and repack into a carry-on bag. I always take too much stuff!
Have a fun day everyone and thanks for letting me share.

Happy Birthday to Lee! I didn't even know!
I cook every single night pretty much. I have become very inventive and creative since surgery. We try to go out or get take out one night on the weekends, which is usually sushi now.
I went to class this morning, came home and did a bunch of stuff around the house, and now I need to sit down and study for the entrance exam for nursing school. Two of the schools I am applying to require it, one does not. It's kind of like a dumbed down version of the ACT. It's Friday...so here I sit playing on the computer.
