The worst in the world

Wed Sep 27, 2006 at 06:50:06 PM PDT

It occured to me tonight as I was opening a can of Campbell's Cream of (probably) Brocolli soup and burning some bacon and wrecking some grilled cheese sandwiches that I am the worst cook in the world.   I don't even have an excuse for it.  I am a stay at home mom so I'm not rushing home and trying to hit the grocery store on my way home from work or anything.  I could take my toddler and live at the effing grocery store if I wanted.  I could spend tons of time looking at cool recipes and finding new and interesting ways to satisfy my family's mealtime needs.   I could meal plan.  I could do the big batch and freeze method. I could wig out on every recipe in every cookbook on the planet. But I don't.
Around 3pm every day a dark cloud comes over me when I realize that I have to make dinner again.  It doesn't help that my husband is a foodie who would be thrilled if I made cedar plank salmon with maple sauce every night...as fricking if.... I like a nice bowl of soup and maybe a can of Pringles for dinner.   And the kids....ugh...#1 won't eat eggs, #2 won't eat pizza (pizza...honestly...the boy's a freak) and #3 hasn't had a vegetable in about 18 months but so far we've seen no signs of scurvy.  

So, Mothertalkers...I thought that it would be interesting and maybe a little cleansing if I admitted that I am the worst cook in the world.   And I ask that you take my challenge and let us all know what you are the worst at...
