After last night's hoorah about soaking my oats, tonight I decided to domesticate myself completely by cooking a full blow healthy meal for the family. What can I say, I'm a bit of a contradiction.
I've always been really home drawn. As a Cancer, I'm a home body and always enjoyed everything domestic. So it's no surprise to me when I get the inkling to cook. Over the last few years I've just strayed away from cooking because I got discouraged by a certain ex. Guess that's what happens when your every move in the kitchen gets analyzed and criticized. I never felt so watched and looked over in my whole life, even by supervisors at work!
He also liked to cook by the book and I've never liked cooking by following recipes. I find them restricting and nothing ever comes out the same. I'm more of an experiment cook. Trial and error. Some things come out amazingly and I try to remember the rough idea for the next time. Some things come out so-so and I try it differently next time. Others get bagged all together. Either way, I love the kitchen...as long as there are no florescent lights! Those make me hiss and run.
Rough day today with the migraine running wild most of the day. A quick nap and some laughs over dinner with family and the bestie seems to have lifted my spirit.
Cupcakes tomorrow. Yum.
