RHome410: A Great Start

A Great Start

I have decided to set goals and establish monthly "to-do-lists," rather than declare any "resolutions" for the coming year. I don't have any of that worked out well enough to share, or, of course, know exactly what 2012 will bring... but I think we had a great start to the New Year today.

Our home-based newlyweds put on their chef hats again, to create and host a bountiful and delicious brunch.

Grapefruit, oranges, mango,
grapes, and pomegranate

Working late into the night after spending New Year's Eve with friends,
they baked cream puffs and cut lots of great fresh fruit into a salad.

Princess Artiste stepped in to help
fill the quadruple batch of cream puffs

This morning they filled the cream puffs with custard and whipped cream, and cooked up sausage, bacon, and scrambled eggs with veggies and cheese.

A friend and Prince Steadfast's dad joined us, and we all ate until we were more than full.

I hope you had a great New Year's Day, and it's only the start of great things in the year to come!

I haven't made any resolutions either. I like your idea of smaller monthly goals. Maybe if I tackle the year that way, they'll actually get accomplished. ;-) Those cream puffs look terrific! Thanks for sharing.

Sure do wish I had a crew like yours to help out here. It's just me. They all look so happy -- I just love to see them.

No resolutions here. Just action. Working cardio into my daily routine is my goal and I did it yesterday. So off to a good start this year. Putting everything still stewn around from the move is another matter, however. Takes even more psychic energy LOL.

Wishing you all the best for the New Year Elaine, xoxo Jane

Oh, yeah...That exercise thing. Definitely on my goal list, and how great of you to start the first day! I think I could unpack boxes as an excuse not to... ;-)
