when a vegetarian cooks NON-vegetarian.

last night i cooked my mr. wonderful a treat.
oh boy, ladies and gents, i cooked chicken for dinner!
it wasn't fancy or complicated
{let's get real, nothing i cook ever really is}
but my man said it did his belly good.
hearing that just made my little wife heart so happy.
what we ate: sauteed asparagus, basil and cheese mashed potatoes
and sweet orange slices.
what he ate {too}: chicken baked in a spicy rub that i almost made up myself.
i share this to 1./ prove i can cook poultry even though i don't eat it!
{i am always worried it's overcooked but i think i've
become decent at dry-chicken prevention.}
and 2./ tell you how amazing basil is in mashed potatoes!
i know i'm a young cook and all, so maybe you've already discovered this;
but i'm telling you it takes your creamy mash to a whole new level.
if you haven't already, you must try try try!
