When life gets busy, I don’t cook. We live off of scrambled eggs and toast, or beans and toast, or melted cheese on toast. Or just straight up toast. So, basically, we have been eating a lot of toast for the past, um, four years?
Finally, a wave of inspiration to cook has lapped over my toast-wearied soul and I have been trying out some new recipes. The library has helped greatly and I have been finding great ideas in the Whitewater Cooks series as well as the Smitten Kitchen cookbook. Yay for food!
I have made Smitten Kitchen’s Vinegar Slaw with Cucumbers and Dill
and Whitewater Cooks With Friends Orchid Lime Salad and Chinese Five Spice Roasted Chicken
and also this fruit pizza. Because fruit pizza.
What are you cooking these days?

I cook all of the things. I think I need to follow your lead because I almost melted down in Stupidstore today when I couldn’t figure out a meal that would work for tomorrow or Thursday with the kids’ activities.

But instead of shredding all the cabbage I just buy a bag of coleslaw mix. Because…laziness.
And this: http://smittenkitchen.com/blog/2006/08/the-taco-joint-on-my-shirt/ because tacos are basically their own food group in my world. And I need at least one serving a day.
