I'm a recent nursing school graduate and, sadly, unemployed RN. The job market is not good right now. :( I love to read and, if I could get a job as a professional reader, I would be a millionaire-that's how much I read! I've been trying a lot of new recipes lately, since I have about 50lbs. to lose and all the time in the world to do it! I also can no longer afford to eat out all the time like I was before the economy went south. I love to cook and my dad loves to eat whatever I cook! My boyfriend is super picky and usually ends up whining because he thinks everything should taste like chicken wings and fries! ;) Kraft Mac & Cheese! Just kidding! No, really, I could eat it for every meal...but it is boring to cook. I love making things for the grill, like marinades or potatoes dishes. I love making beef and broccoli. I love making chili, soups, and stews. My dad makes the best slow cooker beans and slow cooker chicken fricasse. I always beg him to make those for me. Absolute comfort food. Nothing I can cook will ever come close to his cooking. Unfortunately, my mother is a terrible cook and can only make less than 10 recipes. She hates everything I cook. :( Cooking grilled potatoes for the first time. My dad couldn't stop telling me how delicious they were, I think he said "delicious" after every bite! And my boyfriend actually LOVES them, he begs me to make them every time we grill. Artichokes. I can't cook them to save my life.
