Cooking a week at a time, or two

January 16, 2012
3 crock pot buffet from Bella

I cook in phases. Sometimes I love cooking every day and sometimes I wish the pizza guy and Chinese delivery man would just park outside the whole week. I struggle with finding the time to make good meals, especially at times like now when I’m more worried about getting ready for a show, than making [...]
