I did the UNTHINKABLE tonight.

I freaking cooked.

(I attempted it once last week and I could not bring myself to eat it…)

So what if I caught a dish rag on fire?

So what I burned my hand taking the tilapia and veggies out of the oven?

So what if the baked sweet potato “fries” were almost cold (thus needing to be reheated) by the time I finished baking the other stuff?

I cooked and no one died from food poisoning.

I cooked and my husband does not want to trade me in for a better model.

I cooked and it did not involve a microwave or toaster oven or an ambulance for the first time in my adult life.

By golly, I might just have to try this again next week!

Tonight’s menu:

baked tilapia filets

squash, zucchini, red and green bell peppers, garlic, onion, and asparagus

baked sweet potato “fries”

and, of course, sweet tea!

Off to wash the dishes and pray I don’t break one!
