Since Landon is coming to visit I thought that this was the perfect time to show off my good future wife skills and plan meals the whole week while he is here... My excuse for never cooking right now is that there is only one of me and it is alot easier and cheaper to pop in a lean cuisine for 5 minutes. But it seems like it's part of the gentic makeup of women, that when a man is around (Especially one we like) we want to cook to woo him.... so I decided to roll with it. Here's my problem #1 I am not a cook. Growing up my mother, bless her heart, had like 10 recipes she would rotate and that is just what we ate, plus she hated cooking, so I never really learned to cook growing up. That, and it was only me her and my dad soo the meals were never that big. #2 I hate grocery shopping! absolutly with a passion I hate it. There are some women that are born cooking divas with a Grocery Store GPS in their heads, and have 10,000 recipies memorized, and that is not me. I was not hit with the cooking stick. I dont know where anything is so I end up looking like an Idiot making 20 rounds around the store(I wished I had on some ankel weights so I could have justified it as working out) instead of just going nicely down each isle. Usually I get panick attacks when I see all the food and make a b-line for what I need and get the hell out. So, in this case I decided to make a list and mosie right a long like I knew what I was doing.... yeah right. I spent 15 minutes going up and down the Asian. Mexican isle trying to find some Chow Mein noodles, and guess what... some retard decided to move the Asian isle and forgot to metion it to the sign hanging above, if I would have had a Grocery Store GPS I would have known that, but sadly I am an idiot shopper. However I am proud to say that after almost 2 hours in the store I did make it out with almost everything I needed, and that made me very proud, I WAS wishing they would have sold Prozacs at the checkout next to the gum, but I was okay. I left the store with a new appriciation of what it means to be and wife and mother and I'm feeling very underqualifed for the position. To top matters off I came home and put everything away and then realized I hadn't eatin anything yet, so I opened the fridge and my stomach fell when after $126.00 and two hours of shopping there was nothing in the fridge to eat. (everything I had bought was to make, and nothing was just a grab and go.) I love my life! On my drive home I did leave Landon a nice message letting him know that he is one lucky boy because I would never do that for anyone I didn't love.... story of my life, I cant do anything to normal way. Its just not me.
