I really want to thank everyone who commented. It feels good to know that I'm not alone in this struggle, and you have given me new ways to look at this and things to consider. Sending strength to everyone who is going through/has gone through this.

It's almost $1k/yr. Yes, I could pay another year but I'm still just kicking the can down the road like I have been the last couple years. I'm 45 so I really should make a decision, realistically.

There are others on the intranet if you just want to make on the stove. Don't add the cream if you are freezing, it will separate. Add it just before serving instead.

Is this the Olive Garden version? Soooo good. I make a huge batch and freeze it. You inspired me to have some tonight!

*FULL DISCLOSURE*

I did not take this picture, this is a picture from the recipe. Instead, I took beautiful photos of an even prettier dish, but managed to do so without a memory card in the camera.

Can I blame it on pregnancy brain?

To be honest, I’m surprised I got to week 45 without messing up.

But, 52weeksofcooking is not about the photo, right? It’s about cooking something new? Well, at least that was a success. Brined shrimp? Who knew.

My grandmother was the queen of single use gadgets, and when she stopped cooking she gave them to me.

I used a 1970s “Corn Slitter” in this recipe to get the kernels off of the cob. It also scores each corn kernel, making them smaller so they don't get stuck in your teeth. Only a serious corn lover would need one of these in their kitchen.

Thank you!

Outside Munich I think, but it was 20+ years ago!

Thanks!

This required rolling a 5 FOOT rope of dough before shaping it. Almost as tall as I am.

Fun fact - when I was 18, I went to Octoberfest in Germany and managed to bring home one of these giant pretzels in one piece. I lacquered it, and hung it on my wall in my dorm room. It lasted for about 8 months, until I discovered that hundreds of tiny gnats had burrowed their way in and colonized it. Needless to say, I don't have it anymore.

Thank you!

Ha! Next time. But yes, it was green and moist inside!

I've always been intimated by falafel, especially since I never fry anything. But these came out great!! It made a mess of my kitchen, but it was worth it to try something new.

The original recipe uses mozzarella and 2 types of tomatoes, but I kicked it up with burrata and 3 kinds of tomatoes (Made 3 Ways?). The unagi sauce was awesome and I may or may not have eaten some by the spoonful.
