explanations (excuses)

posting has been light around here recently since cooking has not made much of an appearance around my home.  At the beginning of the week, we had shepherd’s pie, which is a classic and which my husband loves.  I don’t think anyone needs a recipe on how to make it though, so it doesn’t make for a very interesting post.  I enjoy making a few of them at once since it requires not much more effort and then I freeze them.  Bow before my domestic skills! 

Later on this week, we had pasta, but it’s hardly worth mentionning, since I basically only added ground beef to sauce that was already made.  I used whole wheat pasta, so bow to my… nutritional skills?

On the exercice/diet front, I’m happy that I’m feeling more motivated to work out this week.  I haven’t missed a day so far.  I’ve realised that getting to the gym is really the most difficult step, because once I’m there, the time really flies by.  There’s really nothing like the feeling of accomplishment I get after a workout, I just have to remember that feeling when I’m feeling on the fence about going to the gym or not.  Tonight, I’m going to work out at my dad’s fancy gym downtown, the Mansfield Club, with my brother, so that’s a nice break in the routine.  Their weight lifting machines run smoothly like butter.  Their cardio equipment is equipped with individual televisions, without exception.

So that’s what’s happening right now.  I should be back to cooking this weekend though, since I promised my mother that I would make at least one side dish for our Thanksgiving Day feast!  I’ve been put in charge of green beans, but I will find a way to make them interesting, I promise!
