...no matter how much or how well you cook, you can always do better. Plus, of course, by leaving this goal open I can track some of the niffty shit I whip up in my kitchen.
As of late I have been trying to perfect a pizza dough recipe, making clam chowder, chicken pot pie from scratch, corned beef, artichoke and spinach dip, babyback ribs, beef stock, Bigos (Polish hunters stew), and a white bean soup.
Next up, I’m thinking about trying a chicken carbonara recipe that I saw online.

Today I recieved my first paycheck since January 15th. After three brutal months of unemployment, I finally became a member of the tax-paying public once again. The contract is short and I took a 29$/hour pay cut from my last position, but I am still happy none the less.

1. The house is always clean.
2. I can set my own schedule, or none at all.
3. I rule the kitchen.
4. I can soak in my tub whenever I want.
5. I can own a really fast car.
6. Everything in the herb garden is mine.
7. Less laundry.
8. I can take a nap at 6:00pm if I want.
9. I can wake up at 4:00am and watch the sunrise from the deck.
10. No nagging.
