Fall...it's a state of mind.

Well it's almost September people. You know what that means don't you? It means school has started, it's getting just the tiniest bit cooler and Halloween is just around the corner. I can't wait! Mostly for the cooler part but also about Halloween. I love it.

So I've lost some weight. I don't know how much since I refuse to look at the scale. I mostly just judge how much I weigh based on how my clothes fit. I got some new jeans yesterday at Penney's. They are three sizes smaller then the jeans I was wearing. I thought, eh..what the hell? ya know? I mean they looked like they would fit. So I bought them. Then I waited until this morning to try them on. I hate trying clothes on in the store. I feel like I'm being judged when I bring the clothes out and have to put them back on the rack. But lucky for me these amazing jeans fit! And fit well at that. They aren't too long which for us short people is just a given most of the time. So I'm super psyched about this. The only thing I've done different is drink lots of unsweetened green tea. Works for me I guess. But I'm planning on cooking lighter anyway. I've been trying. Lots of fish and chicken. But I'm going to try harder to cook less fattening foods and side dishes. My sides are what get me. I like mashed potatoes with lots of butter and fried things and veggies with bacon. So yeah...gotta cut that crap out. LOL But for now I'm going to enjoy the fact that with little to no effort I was able to fit into a size I haven't been in since my son was born. (almost five years ago)

If I do start cooking lighter I'll try to include some recipes. I'm hoping to get a new cookbook soon and I'll share some of the recipes if I like them. And complain when I don't. LOL I'm still getting ready for the Ozark Memories Day even in Dover. I hope lots of people come with lots of money in their pockets. I'll have necklaces, hats, purses, my home made juju and a couple of baskets made from popsicle sticks. LOL I'm looking forward to it this year. I'll have my own booth and it's gonna be fun.

Well I guess that's about it for now. I hope everyone survived the hurricane on the east coast. And I'll try to post more often. Maybe.
