Hi. My name is Lee and I have a confession to make. I’m a complete and total psychopath when I’m cooking. I get so overwhelmed, because I’m not used to cooking intricate recipes, that I just get stressed out really easy. After the second day of cooking on Weight Watchers (by the way, I’m on Weight Watchers and doing really well so far) I made a rule that both children and both dogs must go upstairs while I cook. They all wanted to be under my feet and I was so scared I would poor boiling water on them or something awful that I was screaming at them like a lunatic. I’ve got ingredients all over the kitchen and there are flour puffs in the air and I am nearly in tears. Then my husband comes home and the look on his face is horrific. I’ve managed to use every single dish in the house and all the cabinets are open. He tries to take over which only makes me more upset. It’s bad news.
I’m hoping as I get better at cooking things will change. Until then my family knows the drill. The children run upstairs at 5:00 PM and the dogs go outside. Jason turns up the TV a bit louder than usual to drown out my screams. And then at 6:00 PM everyone comes back downstairs and we eat a nice family dinner.
Then, at 7:00 PM the rest of us go upstairs and turn up the TV a bit louder than usual to drown out the screams of my husband cleaning up after me.
It’s a vicious cycle ya’ll.

I get like that sometimes- especially when making breakfasts- having to cook everything at the same time with nothing being prepped.
I have days when will be yelling at the kids to get out of my way while I knocked over the oregano and manage to use every pot, pan knife I own
