You know, I think when you are unemployed, especially for a long time, it's hard to be inspired or hopeful almost about anything. So it's tough, especially when there has been such gridlock here in D.C.

I almost never make stuff out of cookbooks because they're either too complicated or there's an ingredient in there that I can't find. ↗
