C-Day.

Today's the day I attempt to cook a meal more in-depth than Hamburger Helper. Whether you're "religious" or not, I hope you all pray for me this evening. ;)

(However, we'll be having apple pie instead of pumpkin pie for dessert, as SOMEONE seems to have eaten the pumpkin one already... )

Update: Post-dinner analysis

Wow. WOW. As it turns out, I can COOK.

Second update: I like cooking now!

I want to make more stuff! If you have any good, intermediate-type recipes, send them my way, please. Also, I'd love to do a "cookie swap" for Christmas this year. Anna, are you interested in something like that? We can get some girls from DMX together--everyone makes a dozen cookies or so, and then we get together at someone's house and divide them up so that everyone goes home with a variety plate. (I think alcohol needs to be involved somehow, too.) What do ya think?

I know some of you, Renee especially (since she is one of the few who posts on my blog, HINT HINT JEN), are dying to know how my thanksgiving went. I will be posting soon, but the short of it, is it went rather well. I will post more on my blog later :).

Good luck Jen....you will do fine. I managed to do it, and I am about as good in the kitchen as a 6 year old pouring their own milk :).

And I have been thinking about you, wondering how it went

Wow Jen, you go girl. While I don't share the enthusiasm of wanting to make more stuff, I share in the appreciation of the accomplishment. Us beginners have to stick together. Renee, While I hate to cook it is a necessity - feel free to send recipes my way too :). Thanks!! You can just CC me on the emails of recipes you send.

Renee, I was thinking about you and the cookie swap, and how it would pain you to miss it. =-) Too bad you can't come up for a girl's afternoon/girl's night. Could you? At all? (If it even happens, that is.)

PS--Jeff's such a 'tard. He's convinced that "cookie swap" is a code name for some freaky, sexual lesbian thing.

Once Anna gets back, I'll find out.

Yeah, Arizona.
