Let us know what you make so we can be inspired too - I love picking up interesting recipes from the internet, especially if they are recommended by blog friends.Rock Chefhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11259561583833857901noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3168047058963833173.post-21456233079903609992012-01-02T14:00:40.471-07:002012-01-02T14:00:40.471-07:00Yes!

I too have found that I enjoy cooking, but fail to plan. There's nothing more frustrating than wanting to cook something "good" and finding you don't have the necessary ingredients.<br /><br />I often complain that we don't eat well around here. It's one of my big guilts in life. I haven't taught my kids healthy eating habits. And I don't mean that we need to eat health food, necessarily. We just need to eat something other than breakfast food, convenience food and fast food.<br /><br />I recently hosted a Pampered Chef party - sort of a favor to a cousin who is selling the stuff - and also because I like the products. I have found that having "good" cook wear and utensils also makes cooking more enjoyable. So maybe refresh some of your kitchen tools to help kick-start your plan.<br /><br />Good luck!terrihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12510457113017189354noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3168047058963833173.post-82208933538942769962012-01-02T13:51:17.042-07:002012-01-02T13:51:17.042-07:00This past year I found out that I do like to cook....This past year I found out that I do like to cook. Real food. And I seem to have turned the corner onto the straight and narrow, because even though I am now living alone, I am cooking. Real food. And liking it. <br />Big sigh.CiCihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02466038341689494316noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3168047058963833173.post-91755469993507163082012-01-02T10:59:47.591-07:002012-01-02T10:59:47.591-07:00Bravo on your resolution to cook real food more. ...Bravo on your resolution to cook real food more. I enjoy cooking from scratch (and not just burning something on the grill), but I have to have the right motivation. Lately I have been on a pasta kick. I did have a little black-eyed peas and cabbage for New Years. <br /><br />It takes some effort to get the ingredients/stuff to cook healthy, but the results are worth the effort. And no backsliding into the Chef-Boyardee recipes (noodles, ring shaped food sounds like spaghettios).agg79https://www.blogger.com/profile/08925069219602681862noreply@blogger.com
