Holy cow I have a blog!

Wow. Where the heck have I been? I have a hard time following through with anything so I am quite surprised I even managed to blog for a week. Ha! Well, I am back. Hopefully for good this time.

I am a terrible cook. Nate tells everyone I burn water. I'm not sure that's even possible but if it was, I could probably do it. This makes me feel super guilty. Now that I am a stay at home mom, I feel like it is my job to be able to cook, clean and take care of my family. Not that I have to be Mrs. Cleaver or anything (thank god because I don't know how anyone could not catch that dress on fire) but I should at least be able to make a decent chicken wing. Right? This feeling took me to the bookstore yesterday in search of a great beginners cookbook. I mean beginner beginner. Like the book before "Cooking for Dummies" beginner. After searching for hours I found one I think will do the trick. Better Homes and Gardens "Anyone Can Cook" It literally has pictures of utensils with names next to them. This book should fit me like a glove.

So tonight I embark on what I hope to be a kitchen fireless journey. 5 days, 5 dinners and if we are lucky, 10 fingers when I'm done. See you tonight!
