Chad's adventures in cooking

Every once in awhile I get tired and I don't want to go in the kitchen to cook.

I always cook and CK usually hangs out and does work on the computer; however, there are those times where I want something to eat but I refuse to make it. That's when it's his turn and that's when something bad usually happens. Let me just say that my husband is an awesome man but cooking isn't really his thing. Actually it's not his thing at all..before he met me he only cooked things in the microwave.

 Yesterday was one of those days, I had a crappy day at work and I was exhausted. I didn't get that much sleep the night before and worked all day and night so in general I was pooped. I came home and bitched to CK for about an hour then I made him rub my feet and then I got super hungry so I had to get up and make this:
Pizza Hut ain't got nothing on me.

I like to cook things from scratch (which takes a lot of time and energy) because it is just so much healthier and I think it always taste better. I wanted some pizza but a "healthy" version so I made some whole wheat dough and added sauce, cheese, feta, turkey pepperoni, and some sausage on CK's half.  It turned out sooooooo good; although, I should have let the dough rise more but I was starving and couldn't wait. Anyways, this was a slave job after the day I had had but look at this beauty shot!!:
YUM.

That wasn't all for the night though, after dinner I wanted something sweet.
 I don't buy bags of cookies or sweets because: #1 I'd eat them all the time and get fat, #2 I love homemade things from scratch.

 This leads us to CK's adventures in cooking.

I was sitting on the couch and I said,  "I want no bake cookies and you're going to make them." Sweet I know. Anyways, he accepted the challenge and I told him what to get out and what to do from the couch. This was going to be cooking 101, easy, dummy proof, sweet and simple directions. I pulled up the recipe I use every time on my Iphone and told him what pot to get out:
Ingredients
Successfully getting the right pot and super excited about cooking!
Me getting excited everything was going good while I laid on the couch

At this point everything was going fine, I was telling him what to get out, where it was in the kitchen, how to measure, and telling him to tell me how the stuff was cooking in the pot. Then I noticed he left the kitchen and I said, "where are you going you have to stay in there and get the next stuff ready before it burns!" He didn't speak to me... he just went to the bathroom and came back real quick. He was quite, a little too quite... so I got up and said, "I'll add the oats and stir you're taking to long they will burn." Then I walked around the corner to the kitchen and saw this:


Really Chad? Coco was EVERYWHERE... it was a mess this was after he tried to clean it. All I could do was laugh. Every single time he tries to cook for me something goes wrong.. he didn't want to tell me because he was trying to clean it up before I saw it and yelled at him. LOL Then after this picture he said, "you're just going to make fun of me on your blog now!" Well, baby you were right but this is too good not to share.. I still love you and so will they. While CK was busy cleaning I helped finish the cookies:
Ready for Oats and Peanut Butter!

Ready to be spooned out and cooled!

That was the point where Chad got finished cleaning and told me to get out of the kitchen that he was going to finish making me cookies damnit.

Giving me the I hate your blog face.

Then I went back to the couch and waited for my cookies while doing this face:


So, last nights lesson?
CK just get famous already so we can hire someone else to make us cookies when we are both tired.

WIAW #2

Well, it has been awhile since I did a What I Ate Wednesday but I promise I have been taking pictures! I hope you enjoy my recent eats and check out some of my other posts while you're here.




 
The other day I had a hankering- A Hankering for Boo Boo Banana Bread!
This Banana Bread is the best that I have ever had and it's Healthy!

This served as Breakfast several mornings:
Ohhh, you're going to be YUMMY!

Fresh out the Oven and Smell'n like Heaven!

I had to work 8-4 Today so it was a working snack lunch of a yummy cliff bar and a organic banana. I also came home at 4 and had some Baked Cheetos and a bite of turkey peperoni which I do not have a picture of. Whoopsy.
This is my favorite Cliff bar so far BUT I just tried a Coconut Chocolate one the other day and wowza it gives this one a run for its money!

Dinner consisted of FISH! I have been missing this meal since we moved. It is my healthy favorite and it always makes me feel good after I eat it. Pan seared Tilapia, Steamed Broccoli, and a Baked Potato with some Mozzarella Cheese. YUM.
I can't believe its not butter is all over this stuff. YUM YUM YUM.

I want something sweet right now but I'm going to try and resist. Some Honey Grams might be in my near future though! I hope you enjoyed my eats- I know I did!

Touch the Sky.

It's Tuesday and I haven't done a TTT in awhile so here we go:

 
T. I have the strangest luck with getting jobs. It seems that in life I'm not allowed to be without one (which is a blessing) and if I go on a job interview...it's pretty much guaranteed I got it. I think most of the success comes from the love of doing interviews, it's like the funnest challenge to "sell" myself to another person. I will tell you exactly what you need to hear in order for me to land that job..oh and I'm a hard worker too that could help out as well.

 There has only been one time that I went out on an interview and I didn't get it. I wasn't "dressed" right for a makeup counter and to be honest I think I did it on purpose and just didn't care.
 So, I brush that one off.. I didn't want to put make up on strangers faces anyways!



TT. When we moved to Seattle we got new phones.. excuse me IPHONES and I love it but now I'm addicted to words with friends. I play every. single. day. It's getting a little out of hand but I swear I'm getting smarter by playing. So as of today...this addiction is deemed okay.

PS. Cunt is not a word... thanks for letting me know that MOM.
Hahahahaha

TTT. I used to be a Raver/KandyKid/dance machine.
However, Techno is ALIVE and WELL in Seattle! All of the girls that I work with at my new job love techno and you just have no idea how excited that makes me. I can't wait to fill my ipod up with all the new suggestions from them and can't WAIT to start going out and dancing all night like I did in my younger days! Ahh, the good ole days of 2006 are coming back in full force my friends.. FULL FORCE.

Que the OLD ASS Rave pictures:
