People who cook..(part deux)

I am calling this part deux as my Internet connecting suddenly went down and lost what I had just written so, thus, Part Deux...

I would like to cook someday like those people who cook for a hobby. Really. I came home from work, am defrosting chicken legs, am basically trying to do/figure out 15 things at once and would LOVE to be standing by the stove, freshly chopping ingredients, mincing some garlic...between walking the dogs and putting a load of wash in before I have to go up to Mom's in 4 hours.

So in honor of the road to hell being paved with good intentions, the dogs will get walked, dinner will get made, and for "confession", I'll read the new food network magazine that just came in...maybe even with an adult beverage...whoo-hoo!
