Gambling and Whoring - July 12th, 2008

This morning (and thusfar morning has been going on since 3am) I have prepared a grocery list for twelve dinners for 6 adults. Yes. A grocery list for 72 meals. This is incredibly time-intensive, but for a good cause.

Starting tomorrow, my friend L, her mom, and I are going to start getting together every two weeks to cook up dinners for our families to eat for the following two weeks (minus one free night a week)in the hopes that we will not only start having good meals on the table, but also so that we don’t eat out so much, and don’t have to think so hard about what to have for dinner every night. Our meals will be simple, filling, and hopefully just downright pleasant to be had.

As this is our first attempt, I’m sure there will be stumbles as the three of us learn how to work in a kitchen together, and as we figure out the most efficient way to prepare meals in this quantity, but I think it will be a lot of fun. Eventually, we would like to get to the point that we are cooking a month at a time, but we lack deep freezes right now to store that much food. It will be interesting enough to see how we get two weeks’ worth of food into my freezer as it is.

We are the Knucklehead Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Cooks. The KSPCC will prevail.  We just need a theme song and a logo.
