Chef Jen Gray

So many things have changed for me this year. I've become very passionate about cooking. I hate when people use the word passionate so you know I mean it when I say I really love cooking. 
I try to treat every meal as an adventure in the culinary realm. I don't like to repeat dishes anymore but steak and potatoes will do any day of the week. 
I prepare my menu's every Sunday afternoon, take stock of my pantry and fridge, buy my groceries, prep all the food by chopping, dicing, mincing, marinating and bagging the weeks meals and elements.
It's a lot of work and you won't do it unless you love it or have the responsibility of children/diet. 
Our grocery budget has been affected by my newest passion since I am exploring more expensive cuts of meat and more elaborate dishes. I tend to still buy produce that's out of season which is very expensive but it's worth it if you wait till it's ripe. 
I use several sources to develop my meal plans, I'll share them with you. 
This week I'll try a lamb recipe from Alton Brown on the Food Network. 
Another great source is http://allrecipes.com/
I also use side of the box recipes on occasion and most brand have great recipes on their websites. Here are the links. Have fun cooking up a storm! 
My goal is to prepare "expert" dishes just to challenge myself and grow as a foodie!

Nova Shark Shuffle 5k

My wonderful partner in crime Jeanette asked me to run a 5k with her. I figured why not! I was late and couldn't find them but I shuffled into the race and finished at 37.52 which was not accurate since I don't know where I started. I walked back and found my group finishing with them at 53 mins. It felt good to meet a challenge. 
Our next challenge is Muddy Buddy!

Get Fit

My 2011 resolution was to lose 50 pounds. I'm proud to say I am down 40 and it's November. I hope I can meet my goal but I feel great and encourage everyone to try some of my at home work outs. My 2012 resolution is to run a marathon! Today my goal is to reach 9 miles! 

Besides my hours of running I follow these work outs most often.

I also trained with trx suspension training. 
Follow these workouts 3-5 times a week and start cooking! 
Good luck all you fellow chubsters! I hope to see you slim and smiling in the New year!
