Feeling like I'm trying to hard.

This morning I woke up and decided I was going to make Buckeye balls, and then I also made mini pumpkin spice cheesecakes, and peanut butter chocolate chip cookies. I also have dinner in the slow cooker. I did this mostly for the guy I live with because I want to get back together, but I feel like I may have over done it. 😣

The fact your thinking that you went over the top says that you don't feel he will appreciate your efforts now that's either nerves and can dismiss it or you feel that you wonder if it's such a good idea to try to win him back. And only you can answer that. Good luck. 😊It is very kind of you to cook that for somebody anyway. And if he doesn't appreciate your hard work save it for somebody who will next time, 😊

I know the feeling:) I do all of the cooking because cooking is everything. I was trained to be a chef, so my preparations will always be improving. I try to have everything done at the same time, but these dishes are not too complicated. Just show me a recipe, mostly International fare, and if I like it then I will add it to my recipe box. I love to eat all of the leftovers for a week or two, so I don't need to cook anything major everyday. I am not too finiky, yet others treat my cooking with a suspicious eyeball. That's why I get them to try it out first in order to see if it has the right quantity of salt or not.

If they'll eat everything up that tells me there was something missing or too much salt. If they leave any remnants, then I know it satisfies their taste buds.

I couldn't tell if he appreciated them or not. And last night, I messed up and he didn't come home. I don't know where he went. I leave for Lansing today and will be gone for a week, my classes are 3pm-12am, and he works days so we will be unable to talk. I think I blew it. I'm now starting to realize why no one loves me.

26. As much as I want to leave, it physically hurts to be away from him.
