A Small Win!

I'm no cook. In fact, a month ago I learned how to make grilled cheese...I'm nearly 23. My mom doesn't cook either, save for a few dishes. We don't have a whisk, rolling pin, and our can opener disappeared.

Now don't get me wrong, I can make spaghetti sauce and meatballs from scratch. It's an old family recipe I learned how to make from my Aunt. I can make a mean chicken parmesan as well. Recently I started making pizza dough (see post below) and actually thinking of other things I can add in to make different flavors. I really wish I could cook more, part of the reason I don't is because I work until 9pm 4 nights a week, so the last thing I want to do is cook a meal at 10pm!

This morning I woke up, went to the fridge, saw some eggs and decided to make some scrambled eggs. I added in some cheese, banana, and buttered toast too!


Now, it's nothing complex and didn't take very long but I still feel a small win with my accomplishment of MAKING breakfast and not just EATING breakfast. I didn't just pour myself a bowl of cereal or mix granola with yogurt. I MADE something. A small, easy thing to make,  but it's SOMETHING.
