    I have no desire to cook lately. Please inspire me to cook again!

    I would love to know what everyone is cooking lately. Anybody grilling?

    steak and pickled cucumbers (basically sliced salted cucumbers, rinsed right before serving). I pan fry the steak because we have a charcoal grill, so grilling is a production, and Dh's thing.

    I'll be grilling Vietnamese pork chops with green squash. Grilling is my favorite way to cook in the summer...it's lazy but so good.

    So are the cucumbers cooked or are the just sliced/salted and then rinsed later?

    Yes, you deserve the whole weekend off from cooking.

    I'm hoping to milk the fact that the rest of the family isn't here on my birthday (coming home later today) into a "mommy doesn't have to cook all weekend". Wish me luck!

    Tonight is Thai Coconut Curry shrimp with jasmine rice. Tomorrow will probably be grilled Tilapia in an Island Mango marinade with a roasted vegetable.
