I would hate to be a single parent.

.i love to cook like so many others on here. maybe if you told us why you think you can not cook, we could help you. is it the terms used in cooking? or general not knowing what foods are availiable? or or or?
i'd love to help you find the joys of cooking and creating fabulous meals.

i'm becoming more and more convinced that good and adequate cooking must be connected to some gene or at least genetic deficiency that i have..My mom is one of the best cooks and bakers in our town.... My oldest sister is not a horrible cook either. i swear to freaking gawd, that my older sister has make some kind of pact with satan to be able to 'throw' together dishes the way she can.... She has some kind of inherent kitchen knowlege that i obviously lack.......
About six months ago we decided in an effort to get healthier and spend less money that we'd start eating in....{contrary to my thinking that apparently does not mean buying food to go and eating it at home}.......i bought 2 or 3 Weight Watcher cook books, and have never found a recipe in them that i would actually like eating...(other than the yummy deserts of course).
My older sister sent me money for Christmas to get a crock pot.....But the fear i have is why get something and have it collect dust as well.
i have no ability to cook anything without a recipe... But, apparently can not locate any realistic cook books...... 
Any example of my 'lack of cooking abilities' is i found this recipee on kraft.com....It was for some kind of coated chicken breasts...It called for some kind of cajun seasoning....i couldn't find any at the store and instead decided to substitute it for 'chili seasoning'.  Yeah.....Probably one of the most disgusting things i've tasted all year....
Poor guy, though...You gotta love Him...He ate nearly every bite of it and never complained about it........
Thanks for all the help,
Kali

Yikes! tons of water and cranberry juice for you! ( I make an awesome cranberry concotion that would knock the shit out of any infection. 3 sips and you are good! ~ and on a sugar & Vitamin high for hours.)

Babies only sleep for a bit.. then there are the every 2 hour feedings, the diaper changing, the clothes changing ( spit up anyone?) the bath times, the trying to keep the wee one entertained... a bit of sleep and it starts all over again.
While they nap you clean, cook, and make baby food as best as you can.
If they didnt start out so small, cute, and helpless I doubt we would continue as a society. I think a great many people would scrap the whole idea of having kids. LOL

Which all of this just makes me want to go to bed now. While I can.

If you go to them, or even just start watching the food network, you will catch on to the ways to cook, what will go well with what, and how to fix cooking mistakes. We all make them. But there are fixes.

Here is one that is doing tasty but healthy food http://www.mettlercenter.com/wellness/healthycook.html
That would be good on your budget, and for your health.

Half the battle is knowing the terms, and how to cut and chop things. These classes can help.

As far as recipes go I did give you two really good links. You just need to look at what they have, and be sure you have the items you need in place before cooking. "mise en place"  It will simplify your cooking, and cut down prep time. It will also cut down on fustrations.

My two little kitchen helpers here *know* all about Mise en place. Each time I cook, they come to me for their marching orders. They take turn chopping veggies, and fetching ingrediants. I have taught them both how to chop veggies the proper way for most of my dishes, and they are so helpful!  I love having helpers in the kitchen.

If you are not good at chopping, or have no viable helper there are frozen cut veggies like onions, and peppers.. and some are even in the fresh veg/fruit section. It is cheaper to do this yourself.. but in a hurry buying some will not be too bad. Even Garlic now comes in the pre chopped glass jars in the produce section of most groc. marts. ( I use fresh.. because I am an herb snob but there is nothing wrong with the prechopped stuff)

I am sure you will do fine. You just need a bit of skill polishing, and some recipes. If you follow the websites you will get both.

Good luck and Allez Cuisine!

Gwyn

Status: offline 		I hate it when my ex is going through his horrible time, and decides that the best thing to do is go back overseas, where things are all unicorns and rainbows (which, for him... it really is.  one of the perks of being in his family is that over there, his shit doesn't stink... it pays to be priviledged sometimes)  However, the kicker is that I (as I was told tonight) am being selfish by not letting the Things move with him.  I explained over and over the reasons why, which are the same reasons that I told him for years.  It's not like it was a surprise.  He is just in too deep in his own personal sense of failure that he doesn't see that I am making choices that I feel are best.  Oh well.  He'll get it (or not) one day.

I hate it that he thought it was ok to be disrespectful of my dad, by turning his back and walking out the door when he was speaking to him, saying, "I don't have to listen to you, buddy."      He was really lucky that he had a headstart on his way out the door, because he was already clear across the parking lot by the time I hurdled my dad, flung the door open, ran outside in the rain, and screamed that he better think again before he disrespected my dad... that he could say anything he wanted to me, but he damn sure wasn't going to say anything like that again to my dad and live to tell about it.  So, he decides that the mature thing to do was yell, "Tell the kids I'm dead."  I shrugged my shoulders and said, "OK, whatever," and walked back inside. 

I hate that I remember all too well how untreated bipolar disorder can manifest itself in this man, and how much I know that I will not allow the stupid disease to take control of my precious Thing 1.

Dumbass ex... he'll be back.  But it sucks that I will once again, be made to look like the bad guy to the Things.  "Mommy won't let you go live in the lap of luxury, go the best private schools, be with your other family, get international travel experience, etc."   Yeah well, I guess I'm just a fucking bitch that way.  Sucks to have me for a mom...   oh well, I think I can live with that.

And you never know, they may be more perceptive than you think, even now. It's amazing to me what my munchkins realize. My daughter told me not too long ago that she is happy I have found someone I love who will treat me right and that she hopes that she can find a man like Bob when she is grown up.

Status: offline 		Thank you, craves.  It's just amazing that every couple of years, I get to be drawn into this crap with him because life deals him one crashing blow after another.  It isn't my fault that he's a mess.

I hope and pray that the Things will remember all that I am trying to do for them.  I have done my level best while their dad was off doing this or that, or couldn't keep a job or a home.  I've managed to keep a roof over the heads of the Things, my dad, and me all by myself for years, and actually keep us all fed and clothed, too.  I think I've done ok given what I'm working with.  We live our lives with a lot of happiness for the most part, and more importantly, love. 

Thank you for the encouragement.  It means the world to me.

Hugs to you.

One thing is for sure... they will grow up to be wonderful human beings because of YOU! And, they will know the truth at some point about you and your ex... who's the super mom? You are!

Status: offline 		I would not mind at all, had a friend back in high school, Franco, had an infant brother he would often be asked to take care of. Franco could not change a diaper or bathe a baby gently to save his life, he was just too clumsy. I was around from gr.8 until gr.12, and watched Raphael grow up. Then my sister had her girl and I was there for the first three years and helped my sister raise her daughter, my niece.
I hate that I never did get to see my niece become a young woman. Would have been nice to go out with my sister and shop for her first prom dress.
The memories.

A week before I passed the kidney stone I was drinking pickle juice. No more craving now but I have one hell of a craving for hot peppers, the hotter the better, habanero sauce, they will not sell the green sauce up here because it has a warning and people worry it would be used to make bear spray. :(

Status: offline 		Oh Red,

I don't have um's, but I so fucking hate my ex tonight that I am once again in tears. Long story short, but he is the reason I am not yet in Texas living with the man I love, because my ex and I still own a home building business together and construction has been absolutely dismal and I feel too guilty to leave him to deal with it alone. We have been fighting all fucking night because he has a temper like I have never seen, and because before I met Master just about one year ago, yes much of it has been real time because he has flown here several times to be with me * the ex doesnt know, I am not one to rub his face in it, but anyway, I stay hoping to  help him get things back on track, he (the ex) has devoted his life to the business, we have had it for 20 years and even though we fight like cats and dogs, I did at one time love him and I just can't leave him in a mess and ride off into the sunset, but the bastard just blew up on me again for well pretty much nothing.... I get so mad when he makes me cry because I feel so weak and he is so unappreciative.  Tonights argument started over my new kitten of alll things. Yes we atill cohabit, oh trust me, not even seperate bedrooms, w sleep on seperate floors even, but I wonder what makes me have such compassion for someone with such a dismal attitude on life and so now, I am sitting here chainsmoking in the dark on CM because it us too late to call a friend and I don't want  to tell them anyway because I don't want to hear their nonunderstanding bullshit simplistic answers. I hate getting all tense and scared when he yells at me  and I hate feeling like his fucking mother. What makes someone be so cruel just to be cruel? Sorry to ramble but I am hormonal and way overtired and just so discouraged, not to mention I am scared the pretty soon Master will lose alll patience and that terrifies me. I am also so mad at myself that I am such a coward and have that guilt gene, which he is not even worthy of. I hate that I can't even take even take care of myself rright now and Iam missing my Sir right now it is killimg me. Done now rambling...thank you for listening, off to bed finally....if anyone has please send me some strong energy!   I will do the same

Night all, sweet dreams!

I hate it when ...

But it sucks that I will once again, be made to look like the bad guy to the Things.  "Mommy won't let you go live in the lap of luxury, go the best private schools, be with your other family, get international travel experience, etc."   Yeah well, I guess I'm just a fucking bitch that way.  Sucks to have me for a mom...   oh well, I think I can live with that.


The lap of luxury can be fun drh but there are two "buts". (Well three now, 'cos I introduced this with a "but" but let's move on; shit - four now).

Luxury and privilege can be fun BUT not truly fun unless you've earned it yourself, not just inherited or been given it. There's a huge difference in satisfaction levels. If the things want it and try hard (and ok if they get lucky a bit too) then they'll succeed. And actually what gives pleasure is success in improving, not how far you improve - doesn't have to be a great big fuck-off house you live in to give a feeling of achievement, just a nicer one than the one you had before.

Luxury and privilege can be fun BUT they're not necessary. There was a wonderful documentary from Michael Palin on travels in the Sahara where he met a woman with a husband and a kid and - wait for it - their own stick! (Or something similar). They had bugger all else in this world but they had every expectation before too long of owning two sticks! The pure joy on this woman's face when she chatted about her life and her wonderful husband and kid (and her stick) made you see life in a different way.

And sorry - another "but" (you keep count, I'm lost). Luxury and privilege can be fun BUT there are hugely more stupid arrogant selfish shits in the privileged world than there are in the under-priveleged one, trust me on this. Don't let your things have an easy life which turns them into selfish thoughtless shits.
