Cooking Mood
The last couple days I have been in a cooking mood. If you knew me better, you would know what a strange and rare occurrence that is. I figure it’s just residual “cooking-ness" from the holidays, which is really the only time I have been known to cook.
Yesterday I made quiche and chocolate chip cookies. The cookies I made from scratch. Seriously I used actual flour, baking soda, eggs, and such! Even the quiche was mostly from scratch; just the crust was pre-made. (You didn’t expect me to make pie crust, did you?!? LOL)
Today I am making chicken and dumplings – well, chicken and dumplings without the chicken because cooking meat grosses me out, so really I guess it’s veggies and dumplings. Hey, any casserole with biscuits on top is bound to be yummy!
Next on my list is another batch of potato-apple gratin, which debuted at Thanksgiving. “Gratin," as you may know, is a highly technical term meaning “baked with tons and tons of cheese," always a good choice.
Guess I better get to it before I fall back into my usual “I don’t cook" mode.
