I have come to the sad conclusion that I am really lousy at cooking! Not in the end result - what I do manage to make is always eaten (at least by my husband, if not the picky kids). My problem is that I feel so stuck in a rut with what I make week in and week out, and I don't even know where to look for inspiration! How sad is that for a full-time homemaker!!! Ugh.
Thursday is grocery day for me, so as I was putting together my list a while ago, I filled in some miscellaneous items I need, and then I usually write out a menu and make a list based on that. I have NO idea what to do next week! I have the old stand-by Betty Crocker cookbook in the cute red checked cover, but I can't seem to find anything inspiring in there. I'm not looking for "gourmet," just a little variety with meat and potatoes! LOL!
Does anyone else here suffer from this or am I the loner among all you homesteading gals?!! |
