Organising your recipes & menu plan Monday – 12 Nov 2007

Saturday, November 10th, 2007

Don’t forget about my contest on my other blog!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I wrote a post for Clutter Control Freak recently on organising your recipes. You can read it here – there’s also a wonderful resource in the comments!

At the moment, I’m scheduled for surgery on Friday (minor female stuff) which means I’ve been cooking because I’m not sure how quickly I’ll be mobile ;) I’m booked off for two weeks afterwards and then he’s said to “take it easy” for 6 weeks in total, so no exercise – YAY! (Have to look on the bright side, right?!)

Menu for the week
Monday
Marcia – out
Dion – fasting

Tuesday
Chilli con carne, rice and carrots

Wednesday
Baked potatoes with spicy lentil sauce (food from freezer – taking with me to work as I’m going straight to another talk)

Thursday
Fish, chips and salad (carried over from last week)

Friday
probably hospital food – yuck! (on the bright side, weight loss!)
Dion can pick from the freezer :)

*** I discovered a healthy snack this week – julienned carrots! I take a small container (about 50g) and keep it next to the computer so when I snack, I snack healthy and I find I like the crunchiness. Now here’s the thing – without saying a thing, I saw Dion doing the same yesterday. Isn’t that cool?!
Visit Laura for some great menu ideas.

If you’re interested in joining my research and development team, email me!

Thanks for reading! Come back tomorrow to see how I organise my vitamins.
Oh, and PS, I’d love to read about some of your small, simple pleasures in life!

I need your help!

Friday, November 9th, 2007

Edited to add:
I now have 6 people and I’m looking to double that. I need people who buy e-books, e-courses and so on. Is that you?

I’m putting together a Research & Development team and I’m looking for about 10 people who fulfill these requirements:

Essential
1. honest and people of integrity
2. can give good, constructive feedback
3. communicate well (either written or verbal)
4. a keen interest in goal-setting, time management, organising and success
5. someone who reads other people’s stuff and buys e-products now and again
6. Must click with me. This sounds very airy-fairy but if we’re going to be working together, then we need to be like-minded, right?

Optional, but nice-to-have
1. On my mailing list at http://takechargesolutions.org
2. Read my blogs regularly
3. Previous buyer of one of my products
4. Previous coaching/ organising client, or workshop attendee

What is required
1. If I select you to be on my team, I will ask you to subscribe to my mailing list because I need you to get THE WHOLE ME and that includes my entire marketing message.
2. I will also ask you to read my blogs (this one and the other one —->>) on a weekly basis.
3. I need you to give me written feedback on my products, offerings and such. So if you write well, then that’s a bonus!

What’s in it for you
1. A first look at any new products! For free!!!
2. An opportunity to learn from me.
3. You get an inside look at how I do things.
4. 10% discount off all products, coaching, organising, etc, effective immediately.
5. Access to a new network of like-minded people

How it all works
1. Email me and tell me why you’re interested.
2. I’ll send you a quick list of questions
3. Depending on your answers in 2 above, we’ll have a quick chat on Skype or in my chat room
4. If you’re selected, I’ll give you access to a special members-only blog I’ve already set up and we can get cracking!

I’m very excited and looking forward to working with some of you!
