Happy New Year to you and your families! Many people don't believe in the tradition of making resolutions, but I look forward to it every year. I"ll share mine here in the hopes that you'll share yours as well!
- Be More Adventurous in the Kitchen: Not chicken again? I hope to never hear these words in 2009. Although on busy nights it's necessary to just go with the trusty dinner standbys (mac 'n' cheese, please!), I hope to find time in the coming year to cook things that I've either been too scared to cook or am unfamiliar with. Seems like a great time to tackle that souffle recipe I've been putting off!
- Clean My Kitchen: To be more adventurous in my kitchen, I would actually have to get around it. 2009 is as good of a time as ever to get rid of those silly gadgets I've never, ever used, discover what really lives on the top shelf my pantry, and clean out those age-old condiments festering in the fridge. Ick! Perhaps this is a project for later in the year...
- Have Better Posture: Even year I resolve to lose weight, eat better, exercise, etc. and then get frustrated two months into the year when I get overwhelmed by accomplishing my goals. This year with respect to my body, I'm starting with what I feel is a more reasonable goal: better posture. I'm sick of seeing myself in photos all slouchy and hunched. Plus, studies show good posture is important for physical, mental, and emotional health. That's why in 2009, I avow to stand straight and tall!
- Be a Better Party Guest: No more clinging to my usual group of friends at parties! I resolve to meet at least one new person at each party I attend in 2009. After all, a little uncomfortableness now and then is good for the character.
- Be Less Hard On Myself: This one will definitely come in handy about halfway through the year if and when I realize that I haven't quite followed-through on all of my resolutions!
What are your New Year's Resolutions?

We will start the New Year off by watching "The Secret". It is an awesome DVD about the power of positive thinking and it really helped us get through the past year with a more positive attitude and outlook. I am looking forward to watching it again and being inspired.
Since the economy is so bad and we are all struggling to survive, I resolve to think positive and be thankful for everything we have and to do whatever I can to help others whenever possible. I will try to always look at the glass being half full as opposed to half empty. We are living paycheck to paycheck but any opportunity I have to extend my hand to help someone, I plan to do my best to help. Even the smallest bit can help someone in need and we need to reach out to one another in these extremely difficult times.
I also plan to continue eating healthy and exercising as this is so important for our body and minds. Exercise can alleviate stress and really does the body good.
I wish everyone a very happy, healthy & prosperous New Year!
