Mendy....cooking? NO WAY!

So apparently no one really believes that I cook...testimony number one. My sister made a family cookbook for all the ladies in the family for Christmas. In said book, she called me out! Something along the lines of "Maybe this will show some of us (Mendy) that cooking is an acquired skill". (Did I get it close Rita?) Testimony 2: Talking to my friend Jill on the phone the other night. I hadn't talked to her in MONTHS and yet, when she read on my blog that I got new pots and pans for Christmas she just had to ask "so, does that mean you cook now?!" lol no hard feelings Jill! So that answer is YES! I cook! Derek and I rarely eat out anymore. Only on Sundays, with our BSF class, and maybe once a week for dinner. The reasoning behind this starting off was really to save money, but apparently Derek has seen the greater side of what can come of cooking at home! Apparently, since I've been cooking more often, Derek has lost 8 pounds! He told me that last night and I can't tell you how happy that makes me! So, what's on the menu tonight? Beef stew...yum...and so many veggies!! :)

Is he losing weight because the food is gross??

I kid, I kid. I always knew you could do it. You just needed the motivation.
