The kitchen can be a scary place if you don't have an idea of what works and what doesn't work. This blog is a place for me to keep track of my recipe successes and failures. I will try recipes, review kitchen gadgets, and share my tips for prepping and planning great tasting meals.

Confession
I did not cook this week. Not one.single.night.
On Monday, we went out to eat at The Olive Garden for my Dad's birthday.
On Tuesday, we ordered pizza while my father-in-law fixed my car.
On Wednesday, Sonny picked up the $6.00 dinners from Wegman's. I ate mine in about 15 minutes before rushing back to work for Back to School night.
On Thursday, I went straight to grad class after work and then straight to Bible study. I ate some grapes and cheddar goldfish in the car on the way there.
On Friday, we ordered take-out because we were absolutely exhausted. We ate it on the couch while watching DVR episodes of Top Chef and Project Runway. Then I went to bed at 10:00...on a Friday night.
Today, we went to a Hawaiian luau. They roasted a pig. The whole pig. It had an apple in its mouth. They hacked the whole thing up and served the shredded meat on hamburger buns. I ate some because I kept telling myself that the pork on my hamburger bun didn't come from the pig that was staring at me with an apple in its mouth. It actually tasted great. So did the cupcakes I brought that were a Barefoot Contessa recipe. Each cupcake had about 8,000,000 calories, but they were delicious. I'll have to share the recipe sometime.
I'd like to say that I'll cook tomorrow...but I just don't know. Lately, I've only been able to do one day at a time. I know I'll be cooking again soon because I can't not cook for very long.
So I confess that I didn't cook at all this week. And, you know what? I'm OK with that.
Doesn't everybody have weeks like that every once in a while?

Good for you! It does not matter that you didn't cook this week. Goodness Girl, you sure do have a busy life. Cooking is great when you have the time, when you don't...it sure is fun to have someone else cook for you.
