There I go again, slacking on my posts! I swear this week has just flown by. One day it was September 21st and the next it's the 26th. Now don't get me wrong I am in no way complaining. The faster these next few months go the happier I will be. Looking back at this year I am so surprised at how far we have gotten in this deployment. We only have a bit more to go. There is a light at the end of the tunnel!
In the meantime I am drowning myself in delicious meals that I will one day cook for my husband. Pretty sure I pick recipes I know he will like and do them as practice. Trust me, there are recipes I do that I don't post because of trial and error. For example, I have roasted a bird here and there, but I have not been satisfied with the outcome. I know, I know...you are probably thinking, "What roasting a chicken is so easy!" Well, not for me apparently. No worries though, I am going to keep roasting those birds until I get them perfect. It's all about pushing yourself no matter how many times you fail, and that has been a good amount of times for me in the kitchen. :)
