Tell me, why does bacon grease have to sizzle, pop and be down right relentless in its battle to afflict pain on people? I am not a big bacon eater; I typically don’t enjoy it unless it’s for a juicy and ever so scrumptious BLT (bacon lettuce and tomato sandwich people!), so cooking it has to be one of my least favourite tasks.
The shear stinging pain of bacon fat violently spurting from the pan, on to my foot causing me to feel shards of pain run through my nerves and stinging my knee caps is just about as much fun as I can handle.
Bacon and I don’t see eye to eye.
Plus, I hate to cook. I’m too impatient.
There I said it. I don’t like to cook.
That’s why I could never be a 50’s housewife.
Well, unless it was her. Cuz dude, I can totally do that.
The nights Mike works late I don’t cook and it drives him bat shit crazy. Carter and I will have sandwiches or left overs, but I won’t get all extravagant and well, put anything in the oven. I *may* boil water for Kraft Dinner, but that’s as far as it goes.
That would mean, that yes.
Mike is more domesticated then I.
I like to remind him once and a while; especially when after he’s cooking my dinner.
I think Carter’s a lot like me. He’s absolutely content to have a bowl of cereal for dinner.
It doesn’t happen that often people. I do feed him real food. But, how could I deny him such happiness?
And, it’s good for him!
Dude! Look at that! Fiber and everything! *ahem* You so know I’m a good mom, right?
Admit it.
You’d let your kids over for dinner.
My kids have grown up on Kraft dinners, cereal and Chef BoyRDee.
They seem fine.
LOL.
But I’m sure you make the best KD EVAH!
Ew, Chef BoyRDee makes me barf in my mouth! LOL

Sounds just like me!
At least I’m not alone! Hahaha

Ditto! Ain’t nothing wrong with some fortified goodness in the PM! It’s a jump start on the next day, right? They do say breakfast is the most important meal. Why NOT have it for dinner?
Hahaha! I like the way you think!

Sounds good to me. Better than eating popcorn for dinner, which is my preference.
Mmmm.. popcorn.
If he was old enough, I’d probably give that to him too!

is that an invitation? because i’m sending ‘em on over…
Ah, dang it.
I stepped into that one, didn’t I? LOL :p

I don’t cook all that much when Husband’s away either.
Daughter and I just forage around the fridge like chipmunks. Heh.
Hahaha, chipmunks!
You live off peanut butter?

You can have my kids over anytime! I’ll even send them with a box of cheerios!
Oh no, Cheerios aren’t healthy enough. Hahahaha!

My Punkin’ would live off Shells and Cheese if he could.
Well, I guess he kind of does……
Oh ya, pasta is Carter’s fav!! He’ll eat any kinda pasta!

I can’t cook. At all. At all. At all.
But my son doesn’t know it. He loves PC frozen lasagna or whip up some KD and when I open a can of chickpeas. He tells his dad I am the best cook in the world. Poor poor child.
Hopefully Carter thinks as fondly of me when he’s older!
What they don’t know won’t hurt them Sandra!

There have been many, many nights where my kids and I just had sandwiches or cereal for supper. I refuse to feel guilty about it; my kids are healthy and happy, thankyouverymuch! I do like to cook, it just doesn’t always happen.
Oh he’s doing great, and he eats great on healthy food too. And thank goodness for daycare because I know he eats vegetables there. Hahaha

Absolutely nothing wrong with “that” kind of cereal. If it were sugar coated puffy puff (lol) I would say different. Add a sliced banana to the mix. Perfect dinner. (Much better then KMC). :0)
We eat whole grain toast, cheese, and fruit for supper somtimes.
(I used to LOVE bacon before I gave it up) It and breakfast sausage are now the only meat that still makes me twitch. I loved it. Though better off without it.)

I find myself having cereal a lot. Jay wouldn’t consider cereal as a meal other than breakfast. With these hot, humid days, sometimes cereal is all that I can muster. He eats a frozen burrito!
Ick. Frozen burrito? Does it warm it up? LOL
I love eating cereal for dinner. Gives me an excuse to have more then one bowl. Bwahahaha!

Between cereal and Schwans, I would never cook again if it weren’t for my husband.
YES!!!! NOT alone! LOVE it!!

OK, I totally know this is not the point of the post, but this bacon cooker is awesome: http://www.freshfinds.com/index.cfm/fuseaction/product.detail/_/Bacon-Cooker/productID/1019626d-44ec-4083-99ff-daef9fb023b4/categoryID/7b9ab3ed-89b3-464e-8227-75806dfea61d/
I never cooked bacon that much before but now my daughter loooves it and I hated the bacon stinking up the house when I would cook it on the stovetop.
And cereal for dinner? Awesome, woman after my own heart
LOL!!!
The bacon cooker. That’s something my husband would LOVE! He’ll eat an entire pound of bacon in one sitting.
