Did you know I can't cook?

Yeah! I have a handful of things I can make fairly well, but even the most basic of dishes, I am far too capable of screwing up.... It took being a full time stay at home mom to figure out that I actually suck at making pancakes. I can however make spaghetti and meatballs....when the sauce comes from the jar and the meatballs are fully cooked and frozen. Gah!

Well I suppose since I still have an odd schedule, I can practice my cooking skills. I made beef stew today. It was so so. Nothing fantastic, but also not garbage worthy. 

Next week, I'm going to attempt to make this:

I did make this a couple weeks ago:

It turned out AMAZING!

I might also try baking something. I definitely suck at baking. I just can't stand measuring everything out perfectly... and therefore I definitely suck at baking. But being a new parent gives you practice at being patient which might be just what I need when I bake things.
