It ain't all bad

I was never too interested in being a good cook. Didn't care too much about cleaning. Haven't liked the mornings since I was 13. So needless to say when I got married I didn't have a whole lot to offer. Lord knows why he liked me.

A few things have changed- 5 years later. I would love to be a good cook. I have lots of good kitcheny "stuff", just not the "know how" to use them. But I do try! I love to clean(with the right amount of caffeine). But I still don't like the mornings. (why ofdoes Grace face love them so????) So 2 outta 3 ain't bad,right?

What made me think of this was, My sister Belinda called yesterday, and wanted MY butter chicken recipe. WHAT.. you want something from my Kitchen? I think I should start keeping that recipe to myself. What if some one takes it? I tried to keep the excitement to myself as I rattled off what I knew about MY recipe. I hung up the phone feeling pretty proud. Hmm, wonder if my sister wants some cleaning tips? Shes on her own if she needs help in the mornings..

But I do have a few things up my sleeves, Like my butter chicken recipe. I Can make 2 really good cakes (One being Chocolate Guinness cake, mmmm) I know some good appetizers,and Grace never ever complains about her scrambled eggs(that I make her EVERY SINGLE DAY)... SO It ain't all bad, I guess :)

If only I could learn how to love the mornings...And Trust me, Going to bed early, Is NOT the answer!!
