Proper Prior Preparation…
It can be said that I am possibly be the worst grocery shopper on the planet. That, or I’m way too spur of the moment with my meal planning that I seem to make too many trips to the grocery store. Case in point: in the last 24 hours we’ve made 4 trips.
However, I did manage in these 24 hours to cook a beef wellington dinner, bake short bread, lemon squares, and black and white red velvet cookies with Caroline and Kristin. Then concoct what I assume will be a face melting pot of Chili with Chris containing 7+ kinds of peppers (my hands are still burning from chopping them). I know as it is now simmering in my dutch oven on the stove, that I should be preparing my mouth by lining it with Vaseline, but instead I’ll have a giant glass of milk at the ready. It needs to be used up anyway, because not too long ago I made a trip to the grocery store thinking we were out of milk, only to discover when I got home with it that we had 2/3s of a bag left.
