for the sake of my children . . . who are not yet born, that is

it was during julie & julia {which was, btw, adorable}

that i had a horrible realization:

my children are going to starve.

i mean, i can bake well.

not fabulously; i'll get by at a bake sale some day {helloooo, s'more cupcakes}.

but i do not cook and this must change.

{the feminist in me says, "just marry a man who can cook," but let's face it- i want to be a

stay-at-home mom

ican'tbelieveijustadmittedthat

which means i'll be cooking . . . that is, if i don't kill my entire family with my food first}

so, despite the fact that i will often be cooking for one,

learning to cook meat even though i don't eat it {this should be exciting} and overall just be making a mess of an already pretty small kitchen,

i shall learn how to cook for my future children.

i mean, really, this is a humanitarian effort.

{yes, i broke my "must read the book first" rule just to join my friends at this movie --- i'm glad i did;

it was just so darn cute}
