I told Stephen last night, I feel the most wife/mom/adult like when I cook. I love using fresh ingredients and simple recipes. I guess it's the only time I really "control" the day- if that makes sense. Maybe not control, but predict- in general (and lots of practice) if I cook chicken it will come out how I want, variables are up to me- what else I include with the chicken, how I cook the chicken, side dishes and occasionally dessert- well those are at my disposal. Everything else in the day is up for grabs...especially with a toddler. A very active, unpredictable 2 year old (who at the moment is about 4 inches from my face saying "I wanta tell you a swee-cwit momma" haha). For instance, I didn't plan to clean pen off the wall or change poopy panties, both seemed to make their way into our day today. Unpredictable. Ergo, I enjoy cooking :)
Tonight is chicken with mushrooms...and no cream sauce (not a fan). The
original recipe here.
Mushrooms
Chix Breast- thawed
1-2 eggs

I feel the SAME way when I cook and it's successful! :)
That looks yummy! Have you tried making your own cream sauce? It tastes WAY better!
