proof....

I have a secret... come closer....closer....closer yet...
My name is shonee and I have trouble cooking...I am cooking challenged... not good in the kitchen... ok I suck big time.
The proof of this is I received beautiful pot for Christmas and I thought heck this will help! It is a buttery yellow pot of sunshine! well I was inspired by my friend Mo and I was in the process of making a beautiful meat sauce in order to create a meal plan for work noodles and turkey tomato sauce... mmmm sounds good? I had the ground turkey and celery onion garlic and some peppers in the magic pot... simmering with a little olive oil went pee real quick checked my email real quick.. honestly 6 minutes max I don't get many emails that don't offer free things or enhancing my "parts"

I caught a whiff of something borderline toasty to head to the kitchen to stir the sauce and BAM! burnt... not just toasty but black to the bottom of the pan... I was so sad my buttery yellow pan was blackened and charred.

I dumped it out immediately and put water into it, and let it soak... and yes fun times I scrubbed with soft soap and it finally came up leaving a stain in the outline of the worst potricide incident in history!

so before you encourage me saying oh no no no you can cook.. really really I have troubles in the kitchen... so thankfully barefoot and pregnant in the kitchen I wont be unless it is quick a moment to make a sandwich... mmmmm sandwiches... sandwiches are beautiful sandwiches are fine... I love sandwiches they are one of the only things I can make without burning.... and pancakes... they are what I resorted to after the sauce was a write off.....

Until next time any ideas? cooking tips? favorite no fail recipes for a cooking challenged nurse? Give me a cardiac arrest anyday I can cope, put an apron on me and I am a fish out of water!!!!!!!!!
Maybe I need to order Julia childs cookbook and start my own cooking journey
