you ever just get bored...

So a short while ago I was sitting around trying to think of what to buy at the grocery store to make or dinner that week. I began to think about how tired I was of boring food and how just fed up I was with eating all sorts of fast food or pre-packaged food. That line of boredom led me to go and scope out a couple of foodie magazines with recipes in them (of course). Picked one out and thankfully it did it's job, I was inspired. But now I understand that the Chicago style crust that I thought was too much work will be worth it, because I still hate thin crust pizza, even homemade.

I will say though I have impressed myself some this week. I have made 3 meals from scratch varying in difficulty and I have enjoyed my dinner each night. Monday was pork spare ribs in a citrus chipotle marinade with corn on the cob cooked on the grill, Tuesday was homemade chicken and green pepper pizza, tonight was chipotle chicken cheese steaks. The last one was super easy and was super tasty and no there was no intentional correlation between Monday's meal and today's, I bought the marinade before I decided to make these cheesesteaks.

I am definitely on a roll, I think I will make this a pattern. I think I will start picking up a foodie magazine every once in awhile and start working my way into making better food. This has been a tasty week and there has been no "omg that gross" from my darling boyfriend. HAHAHAHAHA that was last week when I made the black bean and mango salad...

All I really know is that I'm tired of boring food and I have found I am a better cook than I ever let on before LOL.
