Walking

Exercise starts one step at a time...at least I'm walking. Then my aerobics class and tape.

There is also the Avon Susan B Koman Breast Cancer Walk a thon coming up.

I'm not so sure I'm up to 32 miles.

I'm investigating....

Think I'll make some beef stew.
I remember mom putting in a pot roast every Sunday before leaving for mass.

Then it was a wonderful meal when she got home.

She even knew how to make gravy which I haven't gotten down completely.

The part I didn't like was the cold roast beef sandwiches for lunch the next week. To this day I won't eat a roast beef sandwich. I think there may have been Velveeta involved too.

Hers were a lot better than the deli too!

Our comfort food was grilled cheese sandwiches and tuna casserole with potato chips and cream of mushroom soup and Salisbury steak t.v. dinners and mashed potato's; and meatloaf.

Now I like macaroni and cheese a la Martha Stewart not Velveeta. I also like meatloaf and mashed potato's.

Now I make beef short ribs from Bon Appetite.

Isn't it interesting that short ribs, flank steak and other cuts that used to be cheap now are so expensive.

Then again in 1968 gas was .29 a gal.
