Cooking Fail

bloodyrosemccoyDangitall, my family gets tuna casserole tonight, and they can either eat it or make their own damn dinner. I was going to get all fancy up in our new cookbooks, but after about twenty-five minutes alternately leafing through one of them and staring at a single page therein, I realized that fancy meals were not going to happen tonight. As it was, I had to give myself a pep talk to even get through making the casserole, since I felt my level of food-prepping energy was more along the lines of:
1. Buy pizza bagel
2. Eat pizza bagel*
Maybe I should invest in some serious cooked spinach or raisins as a side, because this lack of energy is getting rather troublesome.
At least my pep talk to myself consists of chanting "Out of ze vay! Out of ze vay! I kyan do zis! I kyan do zis!" There's nothing like the image of Pavel Andreyevich "Hoozum Wuzzum" Chekov scampering down a starship corridor to perk one up.
*Pizza bagels are not, strictly speaking, part of the optimal PCOS-oriented tailored-for-insulin-resistance low-GI diet, but I reserve the right to a Captain Barbossa approach to diet plans, and anyway they are fucking delicious.

Date: 2009-12-14 05:48 am (UTC)Oh, I am so glad to know I'm not the only one who does this. In fact, since seeing the movie, I have become entirely incapable of actually enunciating "I can do this" in the proper way. It is now officially "I kyan do zis! I kyan do zis!" And yes, it gets me odd looks. But that's ok.
Ok, you've got one-up on me with the preparation of pizza bagels, too. ("Welcome, Lord Nibbler, Ambassador to Earth, homeworld of the pizza bagel"). Last night (at 1 AM, no less) is the first time in weeks I've been up to preparing anything more complicated than toast. Mostly, I've been living off fresh fruit and Xmas cookies.
