Losing steam...but I think I can, I think I can...

It's been a month since my last post. Thank God no one but my dear, dear friend Denise is a follower or I would feel pressured to write often. But since I usually call Denise and chat while I make dinner anyway, my guilt is for naught.

I have certainly not abandoned my cooking resolution. But the past few weeks, it has taken a hit. Lots of crazy in Walker World, so the cooking didn't always translate. However, I have had a few highly successful meals that I will use again: Keilbasa with Cheese Grits, Caribbean Chicken with Pinapple-Black Bean Sauce and the Feta-Cranberry burger (which my husband passed on and decorated his burger with bacon and mayo, like a real man. Even though it was super-delicious. I'm just sayin'.)

The next five days will be an adventure, as I'm scraping by until payday, when I can get all the ingredients I want for any recipe and not worry that we need to survive on Aldi brand ritz crackers and cheese whiz or the kid's leftover Halloween candy, which I have surrendered and no longer use anyway. But that is a story for another day...

Until the next delicious meal, or until I remember to stay up late blogging, eat well!
