On the Last Day of 2008

I'm not one for New Year's Resolutions. In fact, I've never ever had even one. But I'm kinda in to goals so I've decided to set a few for myself for 2009. These aren't anything major at all (except that first one), but a few things I'd like to get in the habit of doing and learn to do!

1) Reduce the criticism: I am an extremely critical person. I need to learn to let people do things their own way and not point out how much better, more efficient, and practical it is to do it my way. In other words: SHUT UP.

2) Knit a sweater: I still haven't done this yet (after 4 years of knitting) and have been wanting to for a couple of years now. Thankfully I have small children so this can be a smallish project!

3) Bake all my own bread: I love to do it and it is delicious! But sometimes I get lazy. This will include "artisan" breads, bread sticks, hamburger and hot dog buns, etc. ALL BREAD.

4) Cook double and freeze meals: I just started doing this last week and I puff heart LOVE having something in the freezer to grab for a meal. I'd like to have at least 2 frozen meals ready to go at all times.
