food network motivation





A few days ago I was watching the food network and Giada was cooking. Since Cassidy was recently complaining about our lack of vegetables, I decided to try a few of her recipes. I made Garbanzo Bean and Zucchini Salad and Chicken and Arugula Pita Pockets. I had such a great time cooking! Squeezing and zesting fresh lemons, making arugula pesto, chopping zucchini had never felt so good. Watching someone else make it first also helped. We only have 3 people living in our home and cooking has become a challenge. I still would not want to make something like this every night but it's fun for a change.
