Just one of the reasons I do not cook......

So anyone who knows me well knows that I don't like to cook. I am not sure of all the reasons but this is definitly one of them.....

Sawyer got into the trash while I was "trying" to bake. What is sad is Noah wasn't even home so he still made a huge mess and I wasn't even that distracted.
Before we had the boys I was much better about cooking. I enjoyed trying new things and had fun....but now it is just such a pain. Well last night I made some chocolate chip banana bread. I know for all you domestic divas that is no big deal but I was very proud of myself. The boys have loved eating it which makes me feel good as a mom. Jeff could care less....that is another reason I don't cook. But we won't go there.
I love to get online a copy down recipes thinking that maybe someday I will actually try them....and hey maybe someday I will. I keep telling Jeff that as soon as he can get me the perfect kitchen then I will cook more....so we will see. But you have to start somewhere.

I am right there with you. I don't really like to cook, and it's just so time consuming. If you find any good EASY recipes, let me know.

Sawyer is co cute though.
I enjoy cooking but I like cooking easier things without a lot of wierd ingredients.

I hear you on the cooking! I hope that one day I'll be able to enjoy it more, but hey we'll see.

It really motivates you more to cook and bake as the boys get older and show how much they enjoy what you have made--that is what motivates me. Sometimes when we are eating dinner, Porter will say, "Thank you mommy, for making this delicious dinner". What a sweet reward!

I totally feel your pain, I don't like it either and it is worse when you have kids and they won't let you cook. I go through phases where I cook alot and then where all we do it eat Top Ramen or eat out.
