I bought myself a new food processor. I have never owned a food processor before, but I am hoping that it will encourage me to cook more. It’s a new theory that I am testing. Maybe all this time my bad cooking wasn’t my fault, maybe I just didn’t have the right tools. It’s nothing fancy, but I think it will do the job. I bought it four days ago and it is still sitting in the box next to my desk. It’s the perfect height to put my feet up on. TODAY! Today I will take it out of the box, clean it, and find a recipe. I gotta start off strong with this thing. Maybe I should make a butternut squash soup. That is my favorite soup this time of the year. Oh gosh. There is a lot of pressure here that I didn’t even think about. If I don’t make something fabulous the first time, I wont use it again. I will never be able to clean it good enough and get all the pieces to fit back in the box to return to the store. This is a huge commitment. (deep breaths). OH MY!
