I am incredibly proud of myself. I took a package of raw chicken and made it into something not only edible, but quite palatable. I was going to follow the recipe that splagxna suggested, but when I opened the package it turned out that they were "thinly sliced, boneless, skinnless chicken breast cutlets". Yes, they actually fit that on the package. So instead, I did what I like to call Kamikaze Cooking. I made a stir-fry of sorts. It turned out REALLY good, except perhaps a bit on the salty side. I'd definitely try it again, only this time leave out the bullion cubes and use less olives to try to cut down on the salt. I went through about a half-gallon of water. I guess that's healthy. Except for all the chlorine. Tomorrow I get a home-cooked meal from someone else's kitchen, and I have meatballs in the freezer I can do something creative with on Saturday night. Or Sunday for lunch. Whatever.


Wouldn't it be funny if I actually turned out to LIKE cooking?

Can you inspire me to do likewise? Seriously. I'm such a lazy cook that many times, I can't be arsed to make something if it means I may have to defrost meat or spend a few minutes over a stove.

Hahahahaha.... I'm a lazy cook AND a bad cook. I don't have the first inkling of know-how to pull it off. I could inspire you by standing over you with a tiara and a magic wand and chanting "you LOVE to cook, you LOVE to cook..." but I'd be the lowest kind of hypocrite if I did.
