Yes, I'm blogging about food again.

Sometimes I get all excited about a new recipe or two and I have this blur of activity where I cook a lot for several days.

And then all that cooking makes me feel burned out.

So I stop for who knows how long.

Ok, I usually still cook something but it's not something that takes imagination or time or special ingredients. 

I make waffles and soup and grilled cheese and scrambled eggs.

Not not all at the same time, obviously, this is just my go-to menu.

But today I decided to organize my disaster of a freezer.

And I realized that I seriously need to start cooking some of that food in there!

I have fruit, beef, bacon, chicken, and lots and lots of garden produce that has been painstakingly chopped, vacuum packed and frozen.

I have soup bones for heaven's sake!

I have diced tomatoes and tomato juice and tomato this and tomato that.  Yes, lots of tomatoes.

And all of this food has apparently been painstakingly frozen so that I can stuff it in a freezer and ignore it for a year or two.

Not good.

So, this is my new goal:

Use at least one thing from my freezer each....

see I was going to say each day and couldn't bring myself to do it.  I know I won't.

How about each...week?  

One item a week?

Will that help with my freezer issue?

I'm sure it will be better than what I am doing now which is nothing.

Ok, one freezer item per week will be cooked and used in a dinner dangnabit.

Yes, my life is exhilarating and interesting.
