Is anyone else in "the holidays are over and it's a new year" denial? Are you, like me, struggling to get back into your daily routine? Lie to me please. Say, "Yes, Siri! Why absolutely Siri! I'm sure you are doing a much better job than I am Siri!" I'm glad we had this talk.
I just want to bake, all day long. If that is your job, I envy you.
And I want my butler, Wilfred, to cook dinner. Do butlers cook dinner?
Wilfred would.
Anyway, I did make this chicken the other night, and it was mighty tasty. It called for pork, but I only had chicken. So there.
Recipe found HERE.
I baked chocolate chip scones and oatmeal chocolate chip cookies at 9 a.m. this morning. I too want to bake constantly. The routine is that my 3 year old and I bake while my 1 year old takes a nap in the morning. Basically my daughter eats spoonfuls of brown sugar out of the bag while I rush to get the recipe done before my helper OD's on sugar and my toddler wakes up. I think I ate five scones today. Do you feel better now? :)
ReplyDeleteThis does make me feel better, Sara. There are others like me in the world.
ReplyDeleteI am late on reading this post but if it's any consolation, I am STILL aggravated by the emotional demands of a new year. I have gotten on the treadmill a total of 2 times and when I do I seem to have a mental block against going any faster than 3.5. And I can't GET on the treadmill without watching Food Network which just makes me want to get off of the damn thing and get back in the kitchen. So yep - I hear you!
ReplyDeleteI actually don't have the time to cook except for leek vinaigrette which I eat pretty much every evening. I envy you and all the other yous around the world who get to cook all the time !
ReplyDeleteAnd yeah I too am in a new years denial. In my head we've been on december 29th for two weeks now. It's been a very long december 29th :)
I think every day should be December 29th.
ReplyDeleteMMP - 2 times is better than 1 time!
