It is a sad, sad truth, but it's something I have done too rarely of late. With my old job, there simply wasn't time after getting home -- and I was honestly too exhausted even if there were. Especially with this season of little league... 2 nights out of the week, if I didn't get dinner out, we didn't eat until after 8 PM -- usually closer to nine.
Tonight, however, I went to the store and really shopped for groceries. I made sloppy joes from scratch for the kids, along with cottage cheese and watermelon (damn, does my menu planning come straight from my midwest roots or what...). Regardless, it was good enough that I even ate one, and I hate hamburger.
I'm going to have to do this more often now, if only because I can't afford to be eating out all the time on my new paycheck. It'll be better for us all around, though. The kids sang high praise for it and said they'd missed me cooking dinner. Better get back on the horse before I forget how to ride it, then. :)
