I am in a terrible rut. I can never figure out what to make for supper. You think it would be an easy task. I've watched hundreds, if not thousands of cooking shows over the years. I also have a few cookbooks (10 or 20) and I also have access to the Internet where there are millions of recipes just bouncing out in la-la land, waiting for my magic fingers to bring them to my computer screen.
You would think that with all this information it would be a snap to figure out what I want to make for tonight's supper. Not So. I just get more confused, more unsure and more irritated with the more shows I watch, the more cookbooks I look at, and the more info I download. It is a real pain in the behinder.
When I had my daycare meals were a snap. I had menus and lots of ideas on what I wanted to cook. Maybe it was easier because I had more people to cook for, husband, daughter, nieces and their friends. We usually had a houseful. It didn't matter if we had leftovers, someone would always eat them within a few days. It also might have been that I was a lot younger then and more willing to try new things. I didn't mind all the mess that came with cooking and cleaning up after a big meal.
But now with just the hubby and me, I don't want leftovers because I'm the only one who is around to eat them. Who wants to eat spaghetti three days in a row?!?!?!? Well, I guess the only thing to do is go to meal plan M..........M as in McDonalds. Yep, it is a good night for two all beef patties, special sauce, lettuce, cheese, pickles, onions on a sesame seed bun and if you know what that is you are just as old as I am and I probably will be seeing you at McDonald's tonight too.
Until later, read a book, make love and eat chocolate ( they have chocolate shakes at McDonald's too!)
