Eating for two (and cooking for almost no one!)

So you may have noticed that I have really been slacking lately on the blog posts. I used to pride myself on posting if not everyday, then at LEAST every other day. If you are a regular reader, you know by now that has NOT been happening.

But trust me, there is a good reason! There will be a new addition to the Cooking This and That household on or around October 31st! Halloween also happens to be Chuck's birthday so he is very excited that he may share a birthday on "the greatest day of the year" with his son or daughter.

Cookies by the very sweet Katie - soooo delicious!

Not that this excuses my lack of blog updates but perhaps it gives a better reason than the fact that I have been lazy in the kitchen! Chuck has picked up a lot of slack with cooking dinner and making sure we are all fed (thanks, bud!). Fortunately, I spent a lot of time in the kitchen this past weekend so I am hoping that the fatigue/loss of appetite/slight nausea is almost gone and I can get back to cooking as much as I normally do!
