Heh...the people I love are the ones who give me the most [censored]. Isn't it
that way for everybody?

I resolve not to eat dinner (supper in some people's vernacular) or snack
after 8:00 PM

after 8:00 PM

My food related goals are:

1. Waste far less food
2. Carefully consider my intake of highly-refined carbs
3. Eat dinner earlier (8 pm sounds good) - this and #2 should help keep
my weight in the lower end of my desired range, not the higher.
4. Finally learn to cut up a chicken properly
5. Contradictory to #2, but make more pie. I got given some deep dish
Pyrex pie plates that were my late grandmother's and I feel this is A
Sign. (Grandma has been dead nine years, and her household was split long
before that. Dunno why these just popped up in Mom's storage.)

I had three pie plates, more than I could use (as I already have a deep
dish), but have already found a very good home with an appreciative
pie-baking friend for one.

Hehehe! In the case of Crash, that's absolutely true. <G>

lol, yep.

Food related: to make that Black Forest Cake that Rob wants. I even
have the cherries. I just haven't built up the momentum. And after
all the holiday baking and cooking (and yes, eating, sigh), I'm feeling
like I'll have to take a breather before I launch that project....

I've decided mine will be:

Gain 10 lbs

Stop exercizing so much

Watch more TV

Do no more housework.

Since I never fulfill any of my New Year's resolutions, these should
be just right.

My resolution was that I wasn't going to make any more resolutions. I
figure that I can keep that one.

It's not a good idea to squat while wearing spurs.

That's a nice one, Carol.

What are yours?

Same as last year, to lose weight. I lost 35 pounds in 2004 and
hope to repeat that in '05 (now that the holidays are past)...

Last Thanksgiving, I intended to make a Black Forest Cake, but lost my
motivation when it came time to put it together. So instead, I cut the cake
into cubes and made a Black Forest Trifle with cake cubes, whipped cream,
sour cherries, chocolate shavings, and a kirschwasser syrup. I think it was
liked better than the cake would have been!

My #1 resolution is to stop procrastinating. I'm going to start in a couple
of weeks.

I'm liking the sound of that. I got a bottle of cherry liqeur from a
family in the Black Forest (we stayed on their farm for a couple of
days), and I wanted to use it. Maybe I'll do it for Rob for
Valentine's Day :-)

I love Black Forest cake, so this sounds scrumptious!

My resolution was that I wasn't going to make any more resolutions. I
figure that I can keep that one.

One that I'm planning to adhere to is:

Whoever cooks just cooks, whoever didn't cook cleans up.

and

If you otherwise dirty a dish (cereal bowls, plates, etc.) you clean it
afterward.

So far it seems to be working.
