Cooking Today


I am so glad that today I get to cook and make yummy things. I love making pies and I am looking forward to making a bunch. My sons and my nephews love my chocolate pies so I have to make four. I am making this stuff that I call yuppy cheese cake, it is the simplest pie in the world, 1 package of cream cheese, 1/2 cup sugar, 1 container of cool whip mix it all together and pour it into a graham cracker crust and there you have the easiest, lightest cheese cake ever. Chill over night and it is good to go. So many people are bringing pies I won't be baking like in the past. We are going to have pumpkin, pecan, pumpkin cheese cake and the ones I mentioned above. We will be rolling away from the table. My boys look forward to this holiday all year. They love all of the food and even the leftovers.
Me, I keep thinking maybe I should run down to the Weight Watcher headquarters and sign up so I won't be tempted to eat everything. I admit that I am a stress eater and eat for comfort. I wish I was a exerciser who went out and ran off all of my energy.
So now I am off to play in the kitchen

Yep, I'm off to buy some eggnog to put in my pumpkin pie. I'm also debating a key lime pie, since all I'd need are some limes and a pie crust (I have a ton of sweetened condensed milk for some reason).

I also have to try to do laundry today. I did some on Monday, but yesterday there was this terrible line for the washers, and I never did get in. But today ... grrr ... it WILL get done!
