Crockpot cooking
It’s cleaning around my house today among other things. My house is a disaster, so I’m giving orders to the kids on how they will be helping. This after our soccer/gymnastics/ballet morning. Also trying to encourage more reading/math time even when I’m not formally teaching. Board games, free time, play outside, etc. Anything minus mindless video games..
My sister sent a link that’s on crockpot recipes. The author is a trial lawyer, and it sounds like she has very little time to cook. She’s had success with the crockpot method, so I’m going to give this a go. I’ve tried this before, and it never seemed to turn out in my favor. I’m not known for my cooking, and it’s terribly frustrating when I waste time and money. But, here I go again. Maybe perseverance is the key to good cooking?

I actually cooked this weekend
I’m trying to cook a few meals on Sundays that will provide left-overs for us during the week. Our time seems to be so limited for food preparation. The oven baked chicken turned out well, but the pork chops lacked flavor and were dry-I’m seeing gravy in the future for that meal. Ugh-I wish I were better at this..
It’s 9:00 and dinnertime-slap it together
Finished workout, boys returning from practice. Late night, throwing food on paper plates. Thankfully had leftover (dry) tenderloin..
Ground hog day, tomorrow.
