Cooking is not my strong suit. I can cook, I somewhat enjoy cooking. But my husband? He loves to cook! He knows his way around a kitchen! For Mother’s Day I got a breakfast to die for! He made Crunchy French Toast. That is sweet bread soaked in vanilla, half & half, cinnamon and nutmeg and then coated in crushed Captain Crunch Cereal. The french toast was then topped with a chocolate sauce. He went to Shipleys Donuts and got some of their chocolate filling (my favorite!). That was all topped with strawberries soaked in sugar and Grand Marnier.

All of that was just to show you why I don’t stress out about cooking. No matter what I make he will make suggestions on how to do it differently or better. My point here is that I do not think ahead as much as I should for meal time. I do not plan our meals for the week. If I have a big lunch and I know I won’t be hungry for dinner, I don’t cook dinner. I make hot dogs or chicken nuggets for the kids and let him make something for himself.

This makes sense for our family. He enjoys cooking, he can make something out of almost nothing. In fact, even when I do make a meal I check with him first to be sure he hadn’t already planned to cook dinner. Yes, he cooks dinner sometimes during the week.

So my Lazy Mom Confession is that I do not do one of the basic stay at home mom jobs as consistently as I should. This is something I really want to work on. My hubby is very appreciative when dinner is ready and on the table. I want to make him happy and I enjoy caring for my family, so why do I struggle with this? This is a new goal for me. Dinner. Sounds simple doesn’t it? We’ll see.

What’s for dinner tonight? I honestly have no idea! Can I come up with something in the next few hours? I’m a girl that loves a challenge!
