Brian and Jim Eat

On December 9 I saw an email from Epicurious about Cook90.

Basically one cooks all their meals in january rather than restaurants or takeout…its 90 because there are 31 days in January which is 93 meals…3 emergency passes built in.

This is Last year’s kick off article  which describes the concept.  It’s not a resolution, it’s more of an experiement in discipline creativity…ultimately it should have a positive impact in the waist and the wallet.
Anyway, I signed up and will get the emails with tips and ideas throughout the month.  The Starter Guide came this week….pretty straightforward tips…and i’ve begun following the author/epicurious editor that conceived of this on FB.

I have a couple concerns about only three passes because I bought us passes for Universal and our first visit will be 1/2 with a plan to dine at the three broomsticks in the wizarding world of harry potter. LA Times article here

Then we have a holiday party/brunch on 1/8 at the Queen Mary.   That leaves me just one for the rest of the month!   Otherwise, this will get me on track with carrying out my own plannof trying to have a reasonable breaksfast besdies donust and bagels and bringing my lunch….so here we go!
