Wed: Trying to be creative with cooking

If you know me, then you'd probably know that I'm not the greatest at cooking and it's probably because I don't like to cook -- nope! I'm so sad that it's labeled as the "girl's job" and so all the guys just wait until she's finished to eat and that's it ... and she also has to wash the dishes?! haha. (Hopefully my future husband will like to cook so we can cook together and learn together!) Whenever I cook for my brothers, I always hope that they'll like love it and exclaim how good it is ... but rarely does that ever happen. haha. Some people are just real good at some things, and others are not. It is what it is.

I haven't had a satisfying meal in so long and now I know why. A "not-so-satisfying" meal tastes bland at times, but doesn't leave me feeling bad for eating it and a super great yummy meal leaves me regretting the fact that I even thought about eating it ... which then leaves me feeling horrible! ;) haha. I try to remain thankful for what I do have though ... given just enough each day.

I really wanted to try out the cabbage rolls today but we didn't have any cabbage, we had lettuce. So I used some other kind of veggie to wrap it up and long story short ... they turned out okay. Instead of steaming it - like I should have done - I boiled it up and uh, it was very watery. I used chicken though instead of ground beef (I don't know, I just saw in the youtube videos ...). Chicken is healthier anyway! :) In all my life, I just realized today that you can totally get creative with cooking! It doesn't really matter if you know this or that ... as long as it tastes good, right? ;) Plus, mostly everything goes well together!

Anyway, that's it.
