Fast-Food Slow-Down...

So February Fitness has come and gone...turned out it was actually gluttony month. I must have missed the memo!! So this month "WE" have decided after gorging ourselves eating out last month to set out to not eat at restaurants for the month of March. This feat has not come easy thus far. It has become quite clear that many times eating out is something we do socially with others and we quite enjoy this time!! We also have never really been ones to make extravagant meals at home. We get home from work and are looking for an easy way get fed. Now, it must be made clear that both of us are decent cooks, but neither of us really enjoy spending the evening in the kitchen...or so we thought!! "Still Golden" has provided recipes for many-a-meal over the past two weeks. We have bought extravagant ingredients like ginger root and shitaki mushrooms, and have enjoyed the smell of sauteed garlic and red peppers. IT HAS BEEN GREAT!! And to tie it all together I (Jeff) am reading the book "Fast Food Nation" in the hopes that after this fast-food slow down is over on March 30th, I will not be tempted to return to the processed meat and grease that have clogged my arteries with cottage cheese. Let's be honest...there is nothing like keeping a great streak alive!!
