I did laugh though, that you and I have the same cutting board, knife and I have one of the pots you do, too. Orange is great, although, I don't think I'd do my whole kitchen that way like on RR's Food Network kitchen...Lorihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04503404052538005760noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2767546713742554170.post-67930724724015438892009-01-22T22:09:00.000-08:002009-01-22T22:09:00.000-08:00What a GREAT way to blog a recipe.

I have several of her cookbooks and love the food but I can't make a 30 minute meal. It's always double that amount of time lol.

I totally know what you mean about the 30 min thing--it just doesn't happen! Your *cooking in real time* was so funny--and true! <BR/><BR/>I've recently made a couple of things out of her YUM-O family cookbook and I really like it, too.Lora @ my blessed lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05579408092425311320noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2767546713742554170.post-10400105921112948462009-01-21T09:50:00.000-08:002009-01-21T09:50:00.000-08:00I remember cooking like that when my girls were li...I remember cooking like that when my girls were little!

AND, I didn't even have my kiddos helping me, the hubster was watching them for me so I could concentrate, etc. He swears to this day that there should be some sort of disclaimer about it taking 30 minutes. I've since then been able to shave off a little bit of time doing it but sadly, not much! Good luck and can't wait to see what else you make!Kristyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16968704732289458807noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2767546713742554170.post-9654821505361673952009-01-20T23:51:00.000-08:002009-01-20T23:51:00.000-08:00This post made me smile so big!
