A new chapter....

Blogging.... this is definitely a new chapter in my life. Bear with me, I'm still learning. I'm on a quest to become more organized and efficient. I also want to try to save a buck or two in these hard economic times. I'd like to share my ups and downs along the way and have a place to preserve the progress that I make. I'm challenged when it comes to organization. I'm more of an artsy free spirit, but I'm trying. I love to cook, but often times find myself running to the grocery store numerous times a week and sometimes still not having the ingredients I need on hand. I can not believe the amount of money I spend on groceries. I'm going to attempt to shop the sale ads and make a menu plan around what's on sale. I'm hoping that I can be organized enough to share my ideas with you.

Tip of the day: Make your own cappuccino at home w/o the fancy machine.

Fill a coffee cup 1/3 full to 1/2 full with milk. Microwave for 1-2 minutes. Grab a whisk and stick it into the heated milk. Put the whisk between you hands and rub to spin the whisk. Continue this until the milk is frothed. (This did not take me but a few seconds) Add your hot coffee to the cup and any sweetener. Waa Laa you have a homemade cappuccino. Enjoy :)
