Theme for 2014: Calm Down!

 I really like the idea of a theme for the year versus a lot of resolutions. I expect a lot of myself so there will be goals but also I would like to have a theme to strive for that I can come back to every now and again.

CALM DOWN. 

Yes, this is my theme for the year. Seems a bit strange, right? But I'm taking my mom's advice to stop worrying about everything because it will either work out or I will handle what comes next. I am taking my friend's advice to stop over thinking everything and just have fun. I need to learn how to relax and be happy knowing that I am doing my best. I need to learn that it is okay to have absolutely no idea what I am doing because most people don't know either!

My foodie goals for the year: 

• Tamales
• Whole chicken 
• Pie 
• Homemade pop tarts
• Macaroni & cheese
• Soft pretzels
• Cauliflower crust pizza

My goals for the year:

• Completely decorate my apartment 
• Get my teeth cleaned 
• Drink at least 4-5 glasses of water a day
• Get into the healthy weight range for my height (130-160lbs.)
• At least one vacation (looking at Michigan or California)
• Cook one new dish each month
• Save at least $100 per month
