Cooking


I cooked last night. AND....it actually turned out. Everything.

I know, right? Why is that such a great feat for a 40 year old mother of a 10 year old who has been married for 15 years and out on her own for 20?Well, cause franky, I suck at it. I know I can change that if I gave it some time and effort, but at this stage, im not so much into it.

Still its nice to be able to pull it off occassionally.

What did we have?


Roasted BBQ chicken (range free, farm fresh, no hormones or additives, K sweet)

Roasted zuchinni with olive oil, salt and pepper (not too adventurous there)

Corn Bread(from a mix, but still it turned out succulent with just the right ration of crunchy rim and soft warm center)

Corn on the cob with real melted butter.

And to top it off, triple decadant chocolate brownies. From a mix, but dang they were good.
E walked in the door and said, "WHAaaaaaaaa?!?!?! A meal??? Are you feeling okay?"

He about had "succulent warm corn bread" all over him.

Think about that word succulent. It just puts your mind into a state of yummy. You cannot even say the word without thinking yummy.
I wonder if it was a man or a woman who invented the word. Hmmm

I wonder too how other languages pronounce the word succulent - like French or Spanish? I tried putting it into everyday sentences, I laughed my butt off the chair trying it.
"Oh what a succulent apron she is wearing to cook that meal".

Can you tell they gave me Valium today for my biopsy??? And that some of it hasn't worn off???
