so sorry to disappoint

I just can't explain it. I guess happiness has gotten the best of me. Lately I haven't wanted to worry about cooking (sad to say). Or cleaning. Or laundry. Or many otherwise important things that I have let take over my life way too heavily. I have since decided to take life down a notch and truly enjoy my family. We enjoy the not occasional, but frequent, eating out-ings due to my lack of goods and leftovers prepared homemade :)

As much as I love and truly truly enjoy cooking (and baking), I have really needed this break from reality and focus on having a better attitude towards a job I have struggled with, among other things. I needed some time to find myself.

Well, I was lost, but think now I am found!

So I now have this grocery list that I sat down and wrote. I took a bunch of recipes that I came up with prior to becoming veg. Because I really enjoyed them then, I thought I could try to veganize the crap out of them to make them my favs again! But here's the thing; I'm nervous! Why oh why am I nervous? Eh. I suppose it's because I've had this really great time with myself and my family recently that it's just downright hard to commit to cooking again! I say "commit" because we all know when you buy the produce, you must use the produce. Am I right??

Kind of silly, I get it. But hey, thought I'd share a bit of honesty. Enjoy!
