Since I'm having surgery tomorrow, I'm making sure that there are some good things to eat for my family while I recover.  Not that I won't be back home the same day, but my husband is a diligent nurse. There will be no kitchen work [much to my chagrin] while I recuperate. So, I'm cooking now.

So far:

2 Peanut Butter Banana Walnut Cakes

1 large lasagna [will last two days]

1 large pot of pintos & cornbread

1` sugarfree chocolate pie

I'm getting ready to let some bread dough rise and cook some skillet spuds with rosemary and garlic. I'm planning on cooking some carrots, too--the baby loves them!  Maybe I'll get around to getting a batch of cinnamon chicken ready, too.  Depends on how much laundry I finish.

For pity's sake, it's only outpatient surgery, but I'm cooking like I'll be gone for much longer! Well, at least we'll enjoy the accrued benefit of having food ready when we want it!
