My First Time!

I made CHICKEN FRIED STEAK!!!

All by myself!
From SCRATCH!!!

I have always believed that this was a dish that could only be made at a restaurant.
I didn’t think normal people could make this –
I was so intimidated & never even thought about EVER making it myself.But with a little help from The Pioneer Woman
& her new book “Pioneer Woman Cooks: Recipes from an Accidental Country Girl“.

I DID IT!!! And not only was it actually edible – it actually tasted quite delicious!
(The only thing about recipes is that they always tell you to fry meat for only a few minutes –
mine is NEVER cooked inside after just a few minutes so adjust the recipe accordingly)

If you go to The Pioneer Woman’s website, be sure & read her love story & how she fell in love w/ Marlboro Man – it’s very entertaining!

I can somewhat relate since I moved from a city of 4 million to a town of 1400
after I met (reconnected) with my special man…

Oh, and guess what else – I took this picture of our meal!! Yeah, me!
With my new SLR camera – still learning how to use all these buttons –
But WOW! I amaze myself with these pictures!
Let me know of any books, websites, etc. that will help me as I learn to use this blasted thing!Have a great week doing something that you love
& don’t be afraid to try something new!

Hugs to you all!
