Smoked gouda, gorgonzola, brie, and spreadable goat cheese served with organic Ritz-like and organic Wheat Thins crackers.

LOVE these crackers that I picked up at Hannaford. They taste just like the Nabisco variety, only made with entirely wholesome ingredients and they are fairly low in calories and sodium; The Golden Rounds are 90 calories, 149mg sodium for 6 crackers and the Wheat Thins are 60 calories, 105mg sodium for 7 crackers. Yum!

I had 2 glasses of champagne, and several cheese and crackers. :mrgreen: We watched the ball drop, then watched a movie and called it a night. Sweet and simple, with the best company ever; each other! hearts_smiley

My 2010 resolutions:

  • 1. Be more consistent with a healthy lifestyle. No more 6 month long mouth parties!! :lol:
  • 2. Keep my sodium intake lowish at least 80% of the time.
  • 3. Eat more raw foods (fruit, veggies, nuts). I want to replace at least 3 or 4 meals a week with uncooked nourishment.
  • 4. Waste less. I throw out way too much food and buy things that I never use.
  • 5. Start running and run a 5k by Thanksgiving ’10.
  • 6. Reduce stress by any means possible. It’s a killer!
  • 7. Be a better blogger.

That’s my list so far. It’s subject to change at any time lol. ;) They’re all realistic goals that I would commit to any time of the year, but January is a fresh start, so now is as good a time as ever to set new goals. I’m not big on deadlines or anything, but I do like to have some sort of guideline to have things to look forward to or to stay motivated by. No pressure though (see resolution #6). :D

We’re going house shopping today, as long as the weather cooperates. hehe So far the new year is off to a great start!! I’m actually looking forward to Monday. I’m all holiday-ed out! haha Since Thanksgiving it’s been rush, rush, rush and eat, eat, eat! Ughh! I’m looking forward to work, exercise and cooking at home a lot more often. Time to go take a shower. I haven’t taken one since last year! :shock: *giggles*

This is my last post of 2009 — and ! We were going to take a quick trip to Trader Joe’s in Westchester county early this morning, but just as we were leaving, heavy snow started falling! We have AWD, so our vehicle was capable, but we didn’t want to risk it. We decided to [...]
