It's just me now but as I look back at all the meals I've cooked for my family of 4 I wonder how I did it. Just juggling the mental load of all that's involved in putting plates of food on the table...whew! Then there's the physical, the shopping/prepping/cooking/cleaning aspects to putting those plates of food on the table...double whew! You got this, Darlene! I think you are doing the right thing by taking small steps to develop habits, to learn about your wants and needs. Thanks for the video!

👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾it appears that your grocery shopping is getting easier you have a clear pathway of what you are trying to do I use to dread shopping but now I have very few ails I have to go to these days only because some ails I don’t eat any of the foods on the shelves and my meat shopping is easy because I alternate between meat and fish so all in all you are helping me to try a few new things and I’m able to stay focused so thank you my sweet friend for reminding me to inventory what I have in the freezer and pantry ❤

Just talking about, what to make for dinner can sometimes make me tired. Lol. Today I am on easy street, I have leftover turkey soup and scones I made yesterday. Don’t have to think about any of it until tomorrow…I make freezer inventory lists as well. They are the best thing. I also have a list of dinners we like, so sometimes I just go down the list and see if anything appeals to me that day. It doesn’t always work but it helps sometimes. I too, love breakfast for dinner. For some reason it tastes even better later in the day.

I am really enjoying the more frequent videos! I always love your content. I find cooking and shopping for 2 is very difficult. I could skip dinner and be happy. 😅

I love shopping at Giant Tiger. As a plus size woman, I actually find more clothes there than I can at Walmart of late. I love Grenade bars. The Chocolate Mint are delicious and the salted caramel reminds me of a Mars bar. I use them as an occasional treat too. I think the frozen stuff you got is a great option for those days when you need help or don't feel up to cooking.

Glad to know I am not the only one that doesn't have any luck with clothes at Walmart.

@APeekInside I used to find the best fitting pants at Walmart, but the past few years, it feels like their plus size selection has really gone downhill.

Giant Tiger looks like a fun place to shop...I love eclectic stores like that. Saw some very pretty Spring tops on display! I feel the same way about planning meals...I need at least some structure or game plan. What I do is hang a regular calendar on the front of the fridge, and write all the meals on the days of the week IN SOMETHING ERASABLE. That way, if something comes up, I can just erase today's menu and add it later on in the month; or switch it out with another meal on the calendar. And thanks for showing us the freezer medleys...so easy to build a quick meal around...I'm going to have to see if my store carries them! Hope it's warming up in your neck of the woods!

Finally I caught up with you! So glad you are maybe finding your way to better your journey! I have been very busy last few weeks. I kept seeing you post but couldn't watch at the time. I got good news! I'm going to become a Grandma in November! I had to keep hush about it for the longest time it was so hard lol! I been trying to catch up with your videos so I could share. I don't like to comment until I am current. Feels rude to make you go way back to find my comment! I am glad to get to watch you on your journey with food! Hoping some may inspire me to make future grandma and grandpa eat better 🎉🎉 ❤❤ Miss you my friend ❤️❤️

I should do that for my freezer, I have a upright that is in my garage and most times I don’t know what’s in there.

I give you alot of credit for being without your deep freezer all this time. That takes alot of planning to fit everything in. I cant meal plan to far in advance because my kids are in sports & life is always changing. I use a crock pot more in warmer months so no matter when we all get home, food is ready. I'd like to see some different ideas if you have any for crock pot meals & using your bread maker. I use that a lot too so I don't have to be around to watch it.

Good morning Darlene! Great video! I was with friends yesterday and we all talked about exactly what you said about making supper for our family! We all agreed we wanted the big fancy supper but, when the time came we never wanted to cook it. I have decided , since I don't like to cook very much, I am going to prepare things in advance. Another thing is my crockpot is going to start being my friend! Thank you for all the ideas! Have a great day!
