Trying New Foods

I want to refine my New Year's resolution of trying new foods by listing my interests. I plan to try at least one new food a month. As a way to prevent an overcrowded, distracting list, I’ll only list off foods I think I can realistically eat. I know that sounds potentially closed-minded, but I prefer to be goal-oriented. Besides, I’d rather complete my list than be overburdened by it. I have a separate list elsewhere with foods I want to eat that aren’t available locally.

Unfortunately, my local WILD OATS has closed down. I wish I took advantage of it more because I would have liked to buy one new thing a month, outside of my list, something completely new and foreign to experiment with. If the opportunity permits, I'll take advantage of it.
