The cooking is out of control in this house. For the third week in a row, we only went out to eat one time a week. And we’re not skimping on the meals at home. I am WEARING OUT P-Dub‘s cookbook. In fact, I ate a cinnamon roll for snack this afternoon, ate some leftover tomato soup for dinner and now have jalapeno poppers in the oven as a snack this evening. Actually, they were meant for tomorrow but Scott and I just couldn’t wait 24 hours to have them so we cheated and made the filling for all of it but only cut up 4 of peppers. In the span of a week, I’ve also made the chicken pot pie twice, corn bread and beans, blueberry cobbler, chocolate sheet cake and mocha brownies.
To say that you need to go buy the cookbook is an understatement. You need to go buy it, do a happy dance and immediately drive to the grocery store for the ingredients to the tomato soup. It is ridiculously easy and delicious. Make the corn bread with it and dip it in the soup while you’re at it. Oh and then have any one of the desserts. But if it were me, I’d have some more mocha brownies.
I might just have to start a weekly update of my progress.
Oh, and the jalapeno thingies just came out and YUM! That needs to be your appetizer!
Out.
of.
control.

Who Knew?!!! Dad and I are still amazed! Not only are you loving it, you’re doing a terrific job at it!

Looks like you worked through when I yelled at you when you were what like 8, 9 or 10 for baking when I wasn’t home! (How old were you? Certainly not old enough to take on the stove by yourself for the first time!) Now that you have daughter’s, I think you get the picture.

I’m not getting the cookbook, I’m enjoying your cooking too much 🙂 And you need to make the tomato soup/cornbread again this week, I’m already craving it.
