Pantry Challenge 2021 – Day 7

I hope it’s okay that I share a weight loss win today. (I know that can be triggering for some people, so my apologies in advance. If that’s you, jump past the picture.) I’ve lost four pounds since Christmas! After months of steadily gaining a few pounds a month, it’s exciting to go the other […]

Pantry Challenge 2021 – Day 6

‘Twas a fairly chill day for us at home, though it was a dumpster fire elsewhere. Kinda been a theme for the last 10 months…. But, at least FishBoy18’s foot didn’t get run over today. That’s what happened yesterday while he was taking orders at work. Please, if you’re getting takeout and there is staff […]

Pantry Challenge 2021 – Day 5

One of the things I love about the Pantry Challenge is that it motivates me to cook and bake to freeze. It’s a little “two steps forward one step back” since the freezer doesn’t empty super quickly, but the time savings is awesome. Today I pulled from the freezer: Protein Cranberry Bread Slow Cooker Carnitas […]

Pantry Challenge 2021 – Day 4

I don’t think any of us were ready for Monday. Okay, maybe the college kids were; they don’t start school until the 25th. The rest of us? It was hard getting back to reality. Once I did the initial running around to drop FB18 at work, I came home to bake bread. Last night I […]

Pantry Challenge 2021 – Day 3

You know you’ve hit new levels of excitement when you turn to your husband first thing when you wake up and say, “It’s Refrigerator Day!” And when he says, “I know. I can make my coffee without having to walk back to the garage to put away the cream,” you know you married the right […]

Pantry Challenge 2021 – Day 2

Today was a quiet, at-home day. I puttered in the pantry, sorting things out, taking inventory, and getting things ship-shape. We rolled the old fridge out, and the delivery men carried the new fridge in. It’s all operational and waiting for me to fill it tomorrow. I can’t wait! Meals were a little hit or […]
