    2. Purchase tickets for the concert at Maranatha. 
  16. Figure out what it means to "eat Mediterranean" HA!  I put this in my 101-1001 goals so I figured I'd do some research and maybe plan some meals so that I can try to incorporate this idea.  (I said I would do it for one month so once I get it planned I can move forward with that!!) I checked out a book on Libby from the library so I have a better idea of what to do and even planned a weeks menu.
