Challenging Myself: Research and Reading

Research and Reading

It's when to start that I'm having a problem with.

Life and work get in the way so much. But 'shit hitting fan' moments happen without warning. So instead of dillying and dallying or faffing about for longer than is necessary I'm just going to look at the calendar and pick a date.

Saturday 13th October

Why that date I hear myself asking, let alone anyone else. Well in my family we like 13th's so maybe it caught my eye on the calendar, it's a Saturday so not your usual Monday morning new diet/new lifestyle type thing, and well it's as good a day as ever.

And maybe more importantly it gives me time to eat up the stuff that's already in the cupboards, fridge and freezer, so I truly can start with my basic store cupboard purchases and nothing else!!

It also leaves me time to read through some of my books.

For inspiration and ideas.

This one should be extremely useful.

Jack's Blog is on the sidebar with the same title as her new book above Cooking on a Bootstrap. It's a brilliant resource full of very cheap yet nourishing and tasty foods, and the books are available to buy from there supporting the author directly.

This should come in useful too.

I used it the other day to turn some leftover porridge into very tasty Porridge Hotcakes, served with some drizzled over syrup they made a very yummy breakfast.

Now I'm off to do some research and reading ... and drink lots of coffee.

Why .....

I love a Challenge ... with a big C ... I always have. Why would anyone take the easy road when you can take a swervey, rocky and much more interesting one ... and actually learn something about yourself on the journey.

The idea of this blog is to chart some of my Challenges over the course of the next year or so. Some might last the distance and teach me something along the way, some might be serious and perhaps even a tad inspirational.

Some might just fizzle and die a remarkably quick death. I've been known to leave things unfinished ...

Disclaimer

Challenging Myself is my blog.

I use it to chart the Challenges I set myself and what I do day by day, week by week, month by month, year by year.

In it I also express my views and opinions and say what I do and occasionally how I do it. All saved for posterity ... and to amuse myself in my grand old age.

If you chose to copy or follow along with anything that I do or talk about doing, it is assumed that you will do so with care and consideration, and question where necessary any methods or techniques that I use to your own satisfaction and match them to your own circumstances.

The pictures on each blog post are taken by me, or on occasion found on Google Images, unless otherwise credited, and as such my photographs should not be borrowed or used elsewhere without my consent.
