midwest neurotica

I got way too lucky last weekend. Everything I cooked seemed to come out perfect. Maybe I had more patience, or maybe it was the weather. This week I cooked nothing even remotely worthy of a photograph.

The chicken was simultaneously overdone and underdone, the darned 2% cheese I had a coupon for would not melt and both my potatoes and gravy were lumpy! This is not to mention the leftover pancake I set on fire while attempting to toast it and the fresh-from-the-store avocado that came out brown and mealy. Its just been a rough week all around.

The good news is that I had a cozy brunch this morning. I heated up a frozen homemade bean and cheese burrito, topped it with two fried eggs and some spicy New Mexico-style ranchero sauce. I hope this means I have my mojo back!
