Life is so busy sometimes that the last thing I want to think about is cooking.
I know...I have to...cause for some reason my children all think they need to eat three times a day (or more). Go figure.
But...I have been reading the pioneer woman and I have to say I have been inspired to cook again.
Troy's birthday dinner last night was courtesy of recipes she provides on her cooking blog and her new cooking website.
Who knew I could be gourmet?
But...as proof...scallops and pasta:
and Olive Oil Cakes with Lemon and Thyme:
I am so happy to be back in the kitchen and enjoying it!
The best part? My family has enjoyed it too.
Next up?
Orange Chicken
And...we already made this one: Butter Chicken.
YUM-O.

I so envy you. I can't seem to find any enthusiasm to cook or even put together a basic menu anymore. I think it's the dilapidated kitchen, or the lack of time, or the lack of enthusiasm or thankfulness on the part of my children . . .
More power to you!
I LOVE cooking, and PW too! That looks like some fabulous food, Denise, especially those scallops! Lucky Troy!
That looks good... do you have her cookbook? I absolutely love her flat apple pie. It's one of our favorites. (although mine never turns out as pretty as hers.)
love PW! being in the kitchen is great!
Loved all the meals you've cooked recently! One quick question: When are we having Orange Chicken, again? ;-)
