My local farmer’s market had collard greens and yams on sale. Chef G Garvin had recipes for collard greens and candied yams in his book. I figured I’d make good use of the cookbook that has sat on my shelf for a year and my latest purchases from the farmer’s market. The result was a pleasant surprise. They aren’t the best greens or yams I’ve had in my life. They are okay, almost good. Good enough to have for dinner yesterday and today.

Tonight I made chili using a recipe I found in the latest Real Simple Magazine. It was edible. But, I don’t think I’ll make it again.
This week I used my cook book to successfully steam the asparagus that I will eat as a snack with my pre-packaged hummus. I also baked the salmon I had with my salad for lunch today. Plus, I successfully followed the directions to cook the pre-packaged crab cakes I’ll have for lunch or dinner later this week.
In the past week, I used my cookbook to burn zucchini, cook corn on the cob, and boil two eggs.
Even though I haven’t made much progress on the cooking front, I am proud of myself because I have made a variety of salads for lunch this week.
