35 Things: Update

remember my list of 35 things to do this year? I’m slowly whittling away at it. In case you care, here’s an update:

#5: Try one new recipe a week
*
honey bbq meatloaf: gross…basically meat mush on a plate
*
alfredo lasagna roll ups: yummy and easy!
*
black bean & guac burritos: tasty tasty…we left out the lettuce, only because we didn’t have any
*
homemade pizzas: simple and better than the rhodes rolls I usually use!
*green monster smoothies: my new obsession, we drink one every day now!

#8: read 30 books
I read three books this month…
*Crossed by ally condie
*A child called “it” by dave pelzer
*heaven is for real by todd burpo
I actually read a fourth book (The guernsey literary and potato peel pie society), but it was a reread for book club so I can’t count it

#9: complete an act of service each month
did it…felt the warm fuzzies.

#24: get a hair cut
mom trimmed my hair while she was visiting…totally counting it! However, at some point this year I’d actually like to cut my hair…I just have to convince TJ to let me!

#28: floss daily for 21 days
it’s been 25 days so far and I’m still going strong…my dentist will think I’m awesome.

I started feeling a little antsy, thinking I hadn’t done enough this month…but then I remembered that there are still 11 more months to go. so in that case, I think I’m off to a pretty good start this year!

did you write a list? how you doin’?

You ARE off to a good start - especially with your month of no sweets in February!

We tried that honey bbq meatloaf too, and our was a meat mush as well. We didn't mind the taste too much, though, so we kind of used it as a sort of gravy for our mashed potatoes. Lol. Probably won't make that one again.
