I’m Still in a Slump
Remember that chicken I was talking about yesterday? Well, it’s still in the fridge. I didn’t make it last night or tonight. Tomorrow I either have to cook it or put it in the freezer.
Every week when I go to the store, there is nothing good. A few weeks ago, they had all the roasts half price. That’s the night I made real mashed potatoes and gravy. I haven’t made anything good since then.
Now, my oldest will be playing middle school basketball. Practices are Monday through Friday either 2:30 - 4:30 or 4:30 to 6:00. Since I have to drive her, that’s really going to put a damper on dinner most nights.
The thing is, I know the meat selection will be not so good until after Christmas. It’s like that every year. There’s turkeys and hams and expensive cuts of meat.
Maybe I’ll snap out of it and cook on the grill. Nothing like cooking out in the cold and dark night. But it is so worth it.
If anyone has any advice to get me out of this slump, I’d be happy to hear it.
