Giving Up?
I am possibly giving up on cooking. I have said this before, last week some time. My reason then was because of Mrs Nova, and my reason now is because of two more things.
Thing One is I am feeling like I’m fighting a loosing (expensive) battle, where the food in the fridge is racing to go mouldy and gross, and I am just not cooking it fast enough!!
Thing Two is that I am SICK of washing up. I hate it. Luke hates it too, and so (though it’s embarrassing to admit) our washing up might stay there for a two days! It is disgusting, and definitely doesn’t 1.make very inclined to be in the kitchen and cook, and 2. like our house in general.
Marlou made me realise the other day that it’s okay to use jars of stuff. Which my mother has been telling me for a while, but you know what it’s like when you hear it from someone else… particularly when they don’t exactly say it, you just figure it out. Which is the best, and only want to learn.
So pasta it is, with different flavours. You have NO idea how much it hurts me to think that that will be our cooking, but I think I am doing myself more damage then good to continue to try and cook when it’s just not working. Maybe when we have more people in our family…

I know exactly what you mean! I throw out so much stuff because we just can’t eat it! They need to have smaller everything in the shops! Aaron is always complaining that I am giving him TOO MUCH food! That is rare for Aaron lol.
