I forgot to update everyone on my cooking experience after I finished! It went GREAT! I must say that I was a little stressed out EVERY night because I was all worried about making sure I had everything- (even though I had already made a grocery list based on every recipe)- and making sure I had the timing down of getting each item done at the same time w/o something else getting cold. Well... my meals weren't THAT complicated... but it was nerve racking for me because I didn't want to mess anything up! All in all... I only messed up ONE thing... and really, it wasn't my fault at all!
My first attempt at the Weight Watcher's "Spicy Fries" recipe was a total BOMB! I followed the recipe precisely! The only thing that I did was not let it cook AS LONG as the recipe called for-- cook for 15min's at 425 degrees then turn up to broil for 10mins.-- I checked the potatoes at 11 minutes instead of 15... and then at 7 mintutes instead of 10. After 7 mins on broil, the potatoes were COMPLETELY BURNT! I mean... almost disintegrated! We literally had to SCRAPE them off the pan... what potatoes were left that is! So, because I knew I didn't mess it up... I was determined to try them again! So, the next day I made them again and succeeded! The only negative is that they weren't very spicy... next time I'll add more spice than the recipe calls for!
Other than that... cooking went well and I'm done!

When you get ready to cook again I have a new recipe from my surgery book that I think is really good. I did it with chicken but you could do it with pork chops. It is like fried chicken strips but you bake them...very good and I think pork chops would be even better! Easy to do!
