Hi friends! I hope that you left 2011 in high spirits and are ready for an even more fabulous 2012. As I'm sure you've noticed, I've been a bit absent again lately. This time, I blame being out of town and the craziness that is the holidays. Soon, I hope to share with you a roundup of your favorite recipes from 2011 as well as my personal favorites. I'll also look back at my 23 Things in 2011 list to see how I fared...a little nervous about that one, actually.
Also, fair warning: I'm probably not going to be able to post as frequently...at least at the beginning of the year. I'm taking on a new role at work. I'll have a steep learning curve to deal with and my wonderful 2 minute commute will be turning into a 30 minute one (without traffic). Sadly, this means more time on the road and less time cooking and blogging. I'll do my best, though.
Another change to expect on my blog this year is the types of recipes that I hope to be sharing. As part of his 2012 goals my husband would like to embark on
The Belly Fat Cure diet by Jorge Cruise. Since I am the one that makes all of the food for our family, I guess that means I'm going on it, too. And, as my readers, so are you ;).
The premise is that you follow the rule of 15/6...or limiting your diet to include no more than 15g sugar per day and 6 servings of carbs (1 serving = up to 20g carbs). To me, I think the hardest part will be to limit the carbs...I just LOVE carbs. But, since sugar also seems to be hiding in practically everything, that could actually be the more challenging aspect of maintaining the magic S/C ratio. I signed up for Jorge's free newsletter which includes free recipes and weekly menus. His brother and mom have the
The Belly Fat Cure book which also has tons of appetizing looking recipes which makes me think it's not so bad and quite possibly, WE CAN DO IT! I also will be using the website
Skinny Taste.
Do you have any other recipe resources that you'd recommend?
