Menu of Last Resort

I've been working hard getting a book written -- because I have two more to write, and with other things happening -- like writing and sewing and Christmas -- well, some things had to slide.

In addition to keeping up my blog (sorry, friends), I have let other things slide -- like cooking.

Husband and Son know when I'm harried, I make macaroni and cheese. Not out of a box, but "The Hard Way," grating the cheese, boiling the macaroni, baking it for half an hour.

I didn't realize I'd made such an impression until yesterday. Son blogged about my mac and cheese. Someone asked for my recipe.

Okay, I'll take any appreciation I can get, but I'd rather it be for my writing -- or sewing -- or gardening -- than my cooking.

I just hope he doesn't start bragging about my dusting!

Gosh my family would be so excited to have real mac and cheese...or maybe not since my DH loves the orange powdered cheese kind (go figure!)

Thanks for the comment at The Balanced Writer. Well....aren't you going to post the recipe? It sounds yummy! Maybe homemade mac and cheese is a writer thing! Mine has a microwave cheat--just leave out the egg and zap for 15 minutes on high loosely wrapped. It's always better in the oven though. :)
