Happy Monday TKW Family! How was your week? Did many of you get to see the Northern Lights last week? Sadly where I live we did not but I LOVED all of the pictures you all shared on my Facebook page!

Today’s the day y’all! I see my surgeon today to get these dang sutures out of my hand. It’s definitely feeling a lot better than day 1. The fingers still hurt and the 2 knuckles and thumb joint that need replaced still hurt (but we knew that wouldn’t change) but even with the hand all bandaged I can bend my fingers a bit more than prior.

I’m hoping she’ll say I can start using my hand as it’s been killing me to not cook. The ONLY blessing from this surgery is that I’ve lost 9 pounds. Mr. Fantabulous has been cooking but I honestly haven’t had an appetite at all.

Did you make a recipe? Leave a blog comment!

So why do I ask this? Two reasons:

  1. Honest feedback is appreciated. It helps me learn and grow.
  2. Most folks read the comments first before they decide on making a recipe or not.
Leave a comment on The Kitchen Whisperer

We all visit blogs looking for delicious items and inspiration. What I find (and you should as well) the MOST USEFUL thing is the comments that people leave honest feedback, good or bad but respectful please, on a recipe.

You can suggest what you’d tweak or a spin you put on it. Heck or tell me that you loved it! Like how to make vegan, keto, or not use mushrooms.

This is how I grow and become a better Chef. When you give honest feedback on the recipes you’ve made by following the instructions as written, that’s truly appreciated! The most critical thing you can do for me is to comment on the blog recipe post. 

When I look at someone else’s recipe I read the comments as to me, that’s honest feedback. So when you make a recipe of mine or plan on making it, leave a comment on the post. I and everyone else who goes to my site would truly appreciate it!

    I like how this weekly menu is built around hearty mains and still leaves room for some desserts
    at the end instead of treating dessert like an afterthought. From a meal-planning standpoint, that makes sense because it helps with portion pacing, flavor balance, and keeps the week from feeling too repetitive. The mix of richer comfort dishes with lighter items is a smart structure, especially for people trying to avoid falling back into the same dinner rotation

      Thank you so much Alex! I started publishing these weekly menus 10+ years ago as a way for us all to get out of that same ol’ recipe rut. Sometimes it’s nice to mix things up instead of having the same 5 recipes in constant rotation.

      Best Kitchen Wishes!
