Last year my family was into the show "Worst Cooks". I assured them
that though I am not amazing in the kitchen that I am not "one of
them". Well after several issues with dinners in the past couple of
months, I think I should see if they are auditioning. Last week I made
some Turkey sausage concoction with noodles and red sauce. I was
thinking that I was hot stuff making something I don't usually make. The
noodles are ready and I strain them and as I do the strainer falls over
and 3/4 of my noodles go down the drain. I wash them away and start
the disposal and it isn't sounding so great... water starts rising. Oh
geez... well I have to get dinner on the table so I let that go and I
finish up. I am proud to sever up this dinner. I made the carrots
right that I had been messing up and life was good. The tukey sausage
smells good and I changed the way I made them from last time to this
time. We sit down at the table and cut into the meat and guess what.
It ended up being another 10 minutes until we started eating again. The
meet was not cooked all the way (again). After Mike having to fix
another one of my meals we then had to "plunge" the sink. Yes, plunge
it. It took about 30 minutes and taking the pipes apart under the sink
and emptying them of my noodle mess before I was putting everything
away.
I can't make pizza right either. Every time we
get a pizza from winco or papa murphy's I take it out and tell the
family it's dinner time and before I know it I see the pizza going right
back by my face and back into the over. I don't ever cook it long
enough although to me I don't understand what is wrong with it.
Chewy
Chicken. One of my favorite dishes that I make is a cashew chicken
dish. Apparently instead of under cooking it, I am good at overcooking
it. Chewy Chicken is often a phrase said to me at dinner when I ask how
everyone is enjoying it. It will go something like this, "well it's
not chewy chicken."
Someday when we aren't poor, I
think I shall give myself the gift of cooking lessons so I don't watch
my family eat dinner every night in fear that I screwed it up AGAIN!
I
do occasionally make a great meal. It's just that I usually do
something wrong on some part of the dish or forget to season and such.
Little susie homemaker is apparently NOT my name.
