A Small Improvement
I am not the one in my family with cooking skills. Well, I am not the one with good cooking skills. Not yet at least. I have made somethings that turned out pretty darn horrible, but, thanks to some advise from my friend Brad and bullheadedness from myself, I have not given up. I recently made some BOMB (in a good way) chicken with a Caribbean Jerk seasoning. This has given rise to me starting to be a little inventive, as I am starting to think of different ways I could make a delicious meal out of this. I really wish I had a picture of the chicken, sadly I don't, but I will try to take one for the next meal I make. I never really felt creative but finding I'm not a terrible cook has given rise to this different side to me. Hope it keeps going well. Luckily, I am the type of person who likes to try new things!

Good News!
Well I did make it through. I ended up doing more weight training than I normally doing. My normal being none. Brad decided last night was a good night to work out the back and legs. While my back stood up well last night, I almost couldn't walk up to my third floor apartment. My legs killed last night, but this morning, they felt fine, which I am pretty happy about.
I think we may be going again tonight. I just have a 24-day free trial so I want to get the most out of it that I can. I think we are planning on going again tonight and doing some chest exercises.
Right now I am making a pancake. The thought of a pancake the size of the pan has enamored me recently. This time, when flipping it, it sort of folded in on itself. But I kept going and I might just have made and consumed the best pancake ever.

Learning to Cook
Since I have moved out of the house, and most recently, since I have been in Texas, I have been trying to learn how to cook different meals. Honestly, I haven't been very successful at it. I havee made some decent french toast. The many things I have had issues with are:
Pizza - While taking the pizza sheet out of the oven, I burned my finger a bit.
Pancakes - I made a bunch of batter and looking forward to having a GIANT pancake. I did not know that putting all that batter in as small of a pan as I did was a bad idea. Found that out pretty quickly.
Omelet - All I can say is that my omelets have been terrible, my scrambled eggs have been amazing.
Pasta Sauce - I discovered that putting too many different spices in can really ruin the sauce.
I am sure I have many other stories about my cooking adventures, I just can't remember them right now. I do have fun cooking, I just need to do it more often. It isn't like I don't have the time.
