Nope, no more snow (of significance) for us — this is from earlier in December, when Minneapolis got over a foot of snow. For some reason, I just haven’t been taking photos every day (in my defense, today I was busy having fun with Julie, who paid us a very lovely visit this weekend!), so I wind up looking for past shots that I never used on twelve22. You have to have something to look at besides words!

I decided to cobble together some of Clean Eating Magazine‘s meal plans to create one that was vegetarian. You lose some of the benefits that way — no nutritional counts, and their shopping lists no longer work — but it’s still a nice thing to do just to work in more new meals. I think I’ve been doing a fairly good job of eating whole-food sources of protein instead of relying on fake-meat products, and there are even more combinations/meals that might not have thought of on my own. So, you know, something new.

I’ve decided that New Year’s Eve should really be a holiday, so I’ll squeeze in a little work, but I think I might just do some yoga, read a bunch of books, and generally enjoy myself. And I definitely won’t go outside, because we’re supposed to have a high of 5F tomorrow. What are your NYE / New Year’s plans?
