It is Saturday already and I have been slow to move. Not sure where the week went. My job assignment is currently wrapping down and I'm starting to plan my next steps, more on that at a later date, and I managed to spend the entire week in my office. I got nothing accomplished! Didn't even get rid of the Christmas stuff. That means I have a big list in front of me for this weekend. I'm getting rid of all Christmas today! Actually this morning. (As soon as I quit wasting time on the blog :) then it's off to see my nephew john who just turned 17 yesterday. We are going to hit the Squeeze Inn for the best burger in town. That does not really work with Resolution #1 to lose weight but it is his birthday. It does work for my resolution to keep my blogs updated. John and I started a Burger Blog a couple of years ago and I am getting it back on track. (See the link below) I am going to counteract the bad burger by pulling out the treadmill for the first time in months and walking 2 miles. Then I have to do a little bit of work e-mail before I can wrap up the day. Tomorrow... I'm buying a new TV. Finally moving into the 21st century and getting a flatscreen. Mine keeps cutting off. It's only 10+ years old so I think it's time.
Last weekend, when I started this blog, I was trying to figure out a name. I wanted to make it something I feel passionate about. I love Food, Book and Dogs. But the Food, book and dog blog didn't sound that great. That night I made Sweet Potatoes, Onions and Apples, roasted in the oven.

I adore Sweet Potatoes. I try to eat them once a week. So I thought... why not call it Sweet Potato Fries. Not sure if I will stick with it and since I haven't shared it with anyone yet, I still have the time to change it. For now... it stays.
This week I tried making Beer Bread. The recipe was posted on the Farmgirl Fare blog that I follow. It was really simple and pretty good. I used a dark heavy beer and it is almost too much. The bread is really dense so I think I will go with a lighter beer next time. I also think I'll increase the cheese. This is a recipe I'll hold onto and work it out until I get it right.

Tomorrow.... the farmers market. Haven't been all winter and I anxious to see what they have right now. I'll take the camera.
Time to move!
