A re-commitment

As July comes to an end, it's time for me to look back at my old New Years goals and to make some new ones. I haven't really been on top of the cooking, blogging or commenting as much as I have in the past. Part of it I blame on the stress of life right now, part I blame on the heat of the summer.

Does anyone else find it impossible to cook in the insane summer heat? The idea of cooking when the whole house feels like an oven really doesn't make me excited to start cooking.

Starting August 1, I'm back to the cooking drawing board. I always figured that if blogging wasn't fun anymore I would stop. Cooking and blogging is still fun, I just haven't had an opportunity to do it as much. These last months have been a real test. It's coming back from that time off that will be difficult.

The real goal I think is to get grocery shopping. No cooking can happen without some produce in the house! Luckily this new house has some great local stores around it. I'll have to get some photos to show it off.

So keep an eye out for next month, because I'm hoping to get back into cooking form! If you have any recipes you think I should try, let me know! I'm open to just about anything!

  1. Isn't it awful when life gets in the way of what we enjoy? Good luck with the re-invigoration.

  2. I actually just got out of a blogging slump myself. I kind of just stopped looking through other blogs or responding to comments for three months... Sometimes we all need a little break. Good luck!

  3. Looking forward to all of your upcoming posts! :) Life has been getting in my way of cooking as of late too. I always feel so inspired to cook, but lack the time! Hopefully things will settle down a little soon after my sister's wedding this upcoming weekend :)

  4. We all have slumps. To be honest, I have been posting stuff in reserve, grilled stuff to keep the house cool and no bake recipes. I am truly sucking from the bottom of the barrel. Sorry my friend, I to have not been commenting as much.
