It’s hard to write a cooking blog when…
…you haven’t actually been cooking anything. For the last week, I have been feeling absolutely un-motivated to cook anything, so I’ve been purchasing pre-made roasted chicken at the grocery store, heating up frozen fish sticks for the kids (I know, I know, those are barely even food, for heaven’s sakes), and talking my husband into going out to eat.
I don’t know what it is, if it’s getting used to having the boys home all day now that summer vacation has started, or if it’s just lack of inspiration, but I don’t feel like sitting down with a pile of cookbooks and cooking magazines and planning menus. I don’t feel like logging in to any of the several excellent meal planning sites either. I just want food to magically appear in my refrigerator, and then cook itself and arrange itself on the plates at dinner time. Is that so much to ask?
I completely understand how you feel! I’ll be cooking today, though (I hope-as long as someone is hanging out with Lara) and hopefully will have something to SAY!
Not only do I want food to fix itself and magically appear on my plate, I want the dishes magically cleaned, the house magically cleaned, etc… And the bank account magically filled! LOL!!!
Wow! Welcome to my everyday world. LOL…
Cooking is like writing, when you dont feel like cooking just dont cook :). Otherwise the taste wont be superb since you dont put your heart in it.
But yes, I would love also if I can master those food preparation spells in Harry Potter :D
I don’t know about anyone else, but a premade roasted chicken sounds SOOOO good right now. Damn! Lol.
Now I’m hungry.
