almost payday!
Alton Brown is amazing. I watched his sandwiches show last night, nothing special I guess, but it defenitely motivated me. So I'm anxiously awaiting this week's paycheck cause I'm gonna try to make a lot more of the meals I eat. I love cooking, I guess that's been my one true hobby. I've been thinking about it the wrong way though. I usually only cook when I have friends over for dinner. There are a few problems with this: 1)I do it very seldom. To have people over for dinner requires some planning. It's hard to plan much. 2) I'm always preparing similiar food. Even though I try to mix it up, I usually always cook a dinner entree. This is my own fault completely. Aside from my occasional pie, I don't prepare many non "cooked dinner" meals. 3) I don't eat very healthy. This isn't so much about the meals I cook, but what I eat the rest of the time. Even the most unhealthy thing I've cooked is many times better than a McDonalds binge. Binging, my other problem. Since I don't cook that often, I buy most of my food prepared. When at work, I can't really buy anything but vending machine food. So after work, I binge. If I lay off the binging and eat good food multiple times a day, that will be a huge improvement. So that's my goal for the next few weeks.
