Need to make a fresh batch of chili, bake a turkey, make homemade noodles, learn how to bake a spaghetti squash, make a hot dish and even though I’m not eating it make some cranberry bread and an apple crisp. I don’t just cook for me though no one eats with me. I bring meals to my parents, grandma and fix meals for my husband’s business.

I’ll get better at this but here’s a start. And doable. Now to get an exercise menu too.
