I am so failing at cooking for myself this week! (Starting from about...Friday? Or maybe even all last week, too, heh.) I am buying lunch and dinner left right and centre. Or some other meaningless combination of words. It's all very tasty, of course, but the longer I go without making food at home the harder it is to get back into that habit. And it's not likely to be broken tonight, since I have dance class and then I have to go to the library to pick up some books, which gets me home just in time for SYTYCD pretty late, and very hungry.

Maybe tomorrow I will remember to go to the farmer's market across the street, and will be inspired by the food? Maybe.

The farmers market never works for me because I think "What can I make with beets? Ooh, I'm sure I can find something," and then I take them home and its too overwhelming (d-u-m) so then they rot.

It works better to pour through my thousands of cookbooks and find a recipe that speaks to me and go shopping for it. THen I only get overwhelmed half the time.

It isn't that bad once I start, but sometimes I freeze at the getting started phase for no particular reason!

The market helps to narrow it down a bit sometimes - I'll buy asparagus, and then I'll go through all my cookbooks looking for asparagus recipes. But it's not always successful, that's for sure.
