I very rarely cook during the summer. Quite frankly, I hate it. I would much rather let C grill something while I make macaroni salad and lots of fresh veggies.
Yet another reason I love fall is that I get to start cooking again. This weekend I am making chicken and dumplings with homemade bread. C is sick, she sounds miserable, so this should help some. Tomorrow I am making nothing (yet another wake), and Monday (Yep, still part of my weekend, Yeah ME!!) I am making ham and beans. I can't wait. I love fall days, the football on the screen (go UGA!!), and the smell of freshly baked bread. Nothing beats it. So, do you all cook or I the only one left on the planet??
*RIP John. One of my very best friends' dad passed on Wednesday with the same cancer that killed my dad. 3 months to the day people, this really sucks!!

ooohhh...chicken and dumplings and homemade bread?!?! Will you marry me too? Puhlease? And ham and beans?? Bestill my beating heart. I LOVE LOVE homemade chicken and dumplings. Unfortunately, Gunman dislikes chicken with a passion and really dislikes chicken and dumplings, so I rarely make it anymore.
ReplyDeleteI am sorry to hear about your best friend's dad. That is so sad to hear.
Mmmmm I cook about half the time... but if you want to cook for me, you're MORE than welcome. So sorry about your dad, and your friend's.
ReplyDeleteI cook. My boys cook. Hubby CAN cook, but rarely does.
ReplyDeleteFriday, my boys (collectively) cooked Shabbat dinner for my birthday--I had an amazing steak tartare (yes, I know, that's not really cooking, but it does require superior knife skills, which I (ahem) taught them), caesar salad, crusty bread, followed by a chocolate bourbon pecan pie.
Am I lucky, or what?
(Now, if I could only teach any of them to clean up the kitchen...)
@Ilexa- I am so sad for you that Gunman doesn't like chicken and dumplings. I only make it about twice a year 'cause it really is too much work. Tracey isn't my best friend, that would be C's area, but he is just about my favorite boy.
ReplyDelete@Belle-I really only cook on the weekends, the weeks are the Diva's territory. She makes some kickin' hamburger helper!
@The Mother- you are super lucky! C can cook really well, but she rarely does. The Diva has a limited skill set so far, but she is working on it. And, happy birthday! :)
