Happy Anniversary

I would normally hardly call one month without eating restaurant food a reason to celebrate, but I definitely feel like I've hit a milestone worthy of my own celebration. As of Saturday this past weekend, I haven't had a meal in a restaurant for a month. 

I have enjoyed lots of fresh vegetables, fresh fruit, lean proteins, and a large daily intake of water. 

Over this past weekend, I was in Georgia at my dad and his lovely wife's house. They have a garden in their back yard and it is impressive. I've included a few pictures for your enjoyment. 
They have apples, peaches, squash, zucchini, tomatoes, fresh herbs... And so on! It was a great visit. 

I travel nearly every day for work and often venture outside of the Knoxville area. This is one of the reasons (excuses, really) iwhy I was spending so much money on meals because I was too lazy to put home made meals together. Last week during my daily travels I found myself passing by every great restaurant on Earth. It was hard to resist, but I managed. Tomorrow night, I am having a delicious pot roast at home with my good friend Robbin. I cut all the vegetables for it tonight and can't wait to enjoy spending time with another friend at my table.

  2. I think it's awesome that you're doing this, Heidi! I've told Jeff a lot lately that we eat out too much and really need to cut back...but it's hard! I've been reading your blog for a while but am just now getting around to commenting. Keep it up! You def won't regret it. :)
