My cooking stinks.
What has happened to me? I used to be considered a really great cook. Everyone loved to eat at my table. Now that I have been an empty nester for years I don't cook, I just fix. I usually throw a chicken breast on the George Forman and open up a bag of salad and that's dinner for me. Last year, only half of what I made for thanksgiving was edible, in my opinion. Everyone ate it anyway, but I know it was just to keep from hurting my feelings. I think this year is going to be the same. Soon I am going to be the one that they tell "just bring yourself."
Christmas is coming and it is always at my house. We have a traditional Italian meal. Several years ago I forgot how to make sauce. I couldn't even eat it. I kept apologizing but they all kept eating. Maybe they all have rot guts and they don't even know the difference. Maybe it was only in my mind and I never was a good cook.
Oh well, I just wanted to share my frustration and to warn all who I may give cooking advice to in the future.
Have a Happy Thanksgiving
