Not ten minutes ago I pulled up mamahood.org’s admin dashboard with the intentions of blogging. Then I ran off to check my feed subscriptions, and in that short amount of time I completely forgot what I was going to blog about. Pfft. I know it had something to do with food & weight loss, but damned if I can dig anything more out of my brain than that.

Ahem. So in other news, I absolutely love the vacuum sealer that my husband gave me for Christmas (psst, here’s my review on it). I was SERIOUSLY excited about it when I ripped the wrapping paper off of it on Christmas morning! This year is all about living a bit more frugally, and one big thing I am committed to is being more efficient with food. Of course, my gastric bypass (I’m so grateful for the quick weight loss that actually WORKS!) helps with that, since I eat maybe 1/4 of what my kids do at any given meal. I’m cooking smaller portions so we don’t have as many leftovers, using leftovers, relying on home-cooked meals and actual meats, sides and veggies instead of pre-made foods, etc. So far, so good. My freezer is jammed to the gills with about $100 worth of vacuum-sealed meat, plus a variety of vacuum-sealed and otherwise freezer-appropriate packed quick meals and foods.

Oh! I just remember what I was going to blog about: Cadbury creme eggs. More specifically, my daughter’s love for them, and my amusement that she adores them just as I do, while Ryan is all about the Reese’s peanut butter cups — which I could also nom on like there’s no tomorrow.

And with that said, I am seriously tired, and there’s still a load of laundry to fold. So without further ado, good-freaking-night!
