she’s taken over my kitchen, but i welcome it, she’s already tried to have the kids eat candy made out of figs, and she’s soaking the beans. just like my childhood all over again!

many of you cook, i do not. which is wierd cause my mom is an avid cook. i just can’t seem to do it. maybe it’s the picky eaters in my house, maybe it’s the love hate relationship i’ve had with food for so long, but i’m not using excuses anymore. i’ve decided that this […]
