What Did You Make for Dinner?

As a wife we make the dinner, whether it be just for our husbands or for the family of our husbands.
What would be your favorite dinner to cook?
I don't know if I, myself have a favorite dinner to cook, but none the less I love to cook.

It's really simple and cheap!

New Day, New Week, New Year.

 
It's a new week and that means Christmas break is over so we go back to our regular lives. We start work and it's no longer an everyday vacation.
Derick, my husband went back to his second/third shift job, I'm looking for us a new home and starting to look for a part time job. I'm 19, only had one real job that lasted almost a year and a half (it only ended because I got married and moved out of state) so I'm a little nervous about getting another one. What's it going to be like? Will I get another serving job or will I go for retail? There are so many questions that are running through my brain about job hunting.
Getting another serving job means I have to memorize a whole new menu, learn the lay of the land and get to know all new people. Which getting to know the people won't be so bad because I also need to find some friends, I know I've probably said that before but it's true!
 
One a different note...
 
One of my new years resolutions was to keep a journal for the year, a page a day, at the least. And so far I'm going good. I'm not a big journal keeper but I want to have something to look back on when I'm older and be able to relive the memories. Last year I ended up putting the journal on a shelf and I forgot about it and didn't complete it, so this year I'm going to keep it out in the open to ensure I complete the journal.
I always write in cursive, I think it is so beautiful. Do any of ya'll write in cursive? When I was younger I hated to write that way but one day I saw a friend writing cursive and I was like I have to write that way, her notes look so much better then mine do.
