Dinner for one.

 One single unemployed girl's adventures in cooking, dating & job searching.

Where to begin… I'll start when I was laid off from my job. Initial reaction: shock, disbelief and betrayal. I am still looking for gainful employment. And totally in denial about the serious possibility that I may have to change careers. Perfect.
Well at least I'll have time to cook…

And so it began.

I initially started trying out new recipes (Red wine as my companion), documenting them with pictures and posting to my facebook page entitled as "Dinner For One".

It became a fun way to pass the time in between job searching and pity parties. It was also a great way to have social interaction while being home alone all day.

Here is the very first Dinner For One…
 
The Chops have been seasoned and are going into the oven!

Sauteed Zucchini

Pass the vino...

Baby Lettuce greens. You make it fresh, you make it best!

Looking a little low...
Chops are looking good!

Chops are resting!

Dinner for one is served!

Bon Appetite!

I received many positive responses! (I am respecting people's privacy by not publishing names and referring to myself as "Single Girl")

damn nice

Single Girl I'll definitely think about it - I'll have to teach myself web design. I think I have some free time... ;)

TTYL,
