So I cooked..

And it was soo delicious. I really want to try to cook more often, and last night  I proved to myself that I can cook. I had to use math to make the recipes for just the two of us, so with a little Google and math I was able to do it..

I made Easy Garlic Chicken from this Recipe. The website allows you to choose how many servings.
After reading the comments, I browned the chicken on the stove top for a few minutes on each side. And then put the chicken with the glaze in the oven on 425 for 15 minutes. It was really good this way.




And I made Three Cheese Pasta Bake From this Recipe

I added a little Red Pepper Flake to give it more of a spice. Scott even said it was probably the best thing he's ever had. Which makes me feel good, since I really had to half this recipe and wasn't sure how it would turn out. This would be a great thing to have for family stuff. Was really good. Good thing I have all of the stuff for it to make it again.

It was a lot of food. But today I was able to take it to lunch and eat some of the goodness of the three cheese bake.

and I'm 29

Last weekend I turned 29.
eek.

I think I gave up on birthdays awhile ago. But this one scares me. Last year of my twenties. Maybe I should start acting like an adult or something. Maybe have a kid. Get a really decent job, or get another job so I can start saving. I'm past the age where I don't have to save. Yeah, there probably was never that age but you know you do what you can do.

I really need to figure out my debt situation. Think about student loans that I've been barley paying off since I finally  graduated in 2009 and all that credit card debt. OH MY! My goal for this year was to not use them, which other than itunes, I've somewhat stopped. Yes, I need to take my credit card off of itunes and either get a gift card every few months or just stop buying that stuff too.

Getting older sucks. Waay to much to think about.

I don't want to grow up :(
