Kitchen Confessions

I have a cooking blog which is decidedly more sedate than this blog. My Veggie Table is dedicated to sharing vegetarian recipes with the mostly non-vegetarian masses. Unlike this blog which is about making a smart assed fool of myself on a regular basis. I think that those who read the cooking blog probably have the impression that my family is eating these great nutritious meals every night; when in actuality it is more like the husband and me eating the meals while the kids whine about the food placed before them. Don't worry, they get chicken nuggets at least once a week, so they are not going to starve to death any time soon.

Here is an actual conversation that took place in my kitchen recently.

Deedle: What you doing mommy?

Me: I am cooking dinner.

Deedle: Yeah! Cookies for dinner.

Me: No, that is not what I said.

The K-Man: Cookies for dinner? Yes!(insert clapping and jumping up and down).

You can imagine their disappointment when I served Risotto instead. There was much wailing and gnashing of teeth.
