Two month update – 30 by 30

Today I’m two months into my 30 by 30.

I tried quite a few new foods. They just started having more healthy options in the cafeteria at work. The chef is really passionate about the foods he gets and how they are prepared. The whole meal (protein+2 vegs+grain) is 600 calories or less, so it’s a great option. I’ve decided that I’m going update the list from try 3 new foods to prepare 3 new foods to challenge myself even more.

Hubby and I had a beach day while we were at the Cape a couple weeks ago. Due to my very fair skin, I can only be outside for a few hours, so it was a short beach day, but we did it! So technically I only crossed one thing off my list! Ahh. I need to get going on this thing…

Cooking/Baking:

  • Bagels
  • Marshmallows
  • Molten Lava Cakes
  • Baked Doughnuts
  • Cheesecake
  • Indian Meal (chicken tikka masala and naan)
  • Sushi
  • Continue to bake for a good cause
  • Try Prepare three new foods

Health/Fitness:

Boston/Travel:

  • Visit at least 3 new cities (1: San Francisco)
  • Pack a picnic dinner and see a movie on the Esplanade
  • Go to the beach! (can you believe Hubby and I haven’t had a beach day since we moved to Boston 3 years ago)
  • Go to the Cranberry Festival in October
  • Take a spontanious trip with girlfriends

Relationships:

  • Talk to younger siblings (A and L) on a regular basis
  • Plan/host a girls night (in or out)
  • Go visit my little brother’s college dorm room
  • Meet my friend’s babies in the Midwest
  • Babysit/Spoil my new nephew as much as I can
  • Send birthday cards to my siblings, parents, and nephew
  • Plan a date-day with Hubby

Other:

  • Take a cooking class
  • Read the photography books my dad got me
  • Finish all the nearly-complete kitchen projects
  • Fully de-clutter our place
  • Volunteer for something at least four times (1: volunteered to take care of the ongoing can-recycling project at work)
  • Plan a Boston area food blogger event

    I turn 29 in about a month and I’m having a tough time making my 30 by 30 list…I have no idea how I’ll actually complete the items on the list! 🙂 You’re doing great so far and thanks for inspiring me to make a list of my own!

    You are doing an awesome job on this list. I should have motivated myself to do one of these as well. Wonder if I could make a list I could finish in 10 months. 🙂

    Thanks guys! The past month has been hectic, so I’m hoping that I can get refocused starting in January.
