Great First Week of March

The sun is shining and we have blue skies again.  So pretty.  Still a little cold but it's sunny and that makes it all better. 

I've had a good week after the snow day.  I got some knitting done and finished the first baby clothes.  My niece also officially announced to everyone that she is having a baby so now I can send her the clothes.  My sister had told me earlier because she was too excited to keep it secret.  I think they turned out well and are pretty in the green, yellow and white since we don't know what the baby will be yet.  I mailed them yesterday and she should receive the package Monday.





On Wednesday I met with a customer that wanted some help with meal planning.  We talked about how to start and planned a strategy.  We also toured the refrigerator and freezer and planned meals that used what was there to avoid waste.  I had a great time and she was happy to have some help. 

I also met with some people from an apartment complex that want to offer monthly cooking classes for entertainment to their residents.  I wanted to see the kitchen to make sure I could cook and entertain.  The kitchen is good.  It's big, good range, ovens and large refrigerator.  We'll see what happens with that. 

Yesterday was the errand day that I avoided on the snow day.  I went to the bread store and the Natural Foods Warehouse.  I forgot the bank and post office so that will be on today's list. 

I also met with a couple who received a gift certificate for Christmas.  The husband's mom purchased it so her son, his wife and their daughter could have a cooking class.  We got some ideas for the menu, they're going to invite 3 friends and after their cooking class they'll eat the meal with their friends.  That will be fun. 

I made lots of pasta dishes last week, I must have been having pasta cravings when I menu planned, so this week feels like some lighter meals.  I love pasta but do also crave some great salads and soups and that looks like this week's plan. 

Off to the post office, bank, then personal meal planning.  A chef has to eat too!
