Default why is it...

that cravings hit at the most inopportune times?

All day today I was craving *something* but I couldn't put my finger on what it was. Finally, just a few minutes ago, it hit me... bourbon chicken over steamed rice. Unfortunately, that is something you get at the mall, and they close within the hour. I'd have no time to get dressed and head over there before they closed (plus, i feel gross, so getting out isn't on my list of things to do right now). jeff's in the middle of moving my desk/computer into the dining room, so he can't drop what he's doing and go get it either.

So now I'm going to have to find something to satisfy when all I can think about is bourbon chicken.

Guess where I'll be going tomorrow? LOL

My cravings always hit me usually between 8pm and 11pm. Thankfully with Lilly I wanted Burger King and we have one a minute up the road that's open until 1am so Charles wasn't too upset with me about making him go out.

Libby, I sympathize. I was always craving either Pei Wei's dan dan noodles or Panda Express's orange chicken around 1am. Neither is open at 1am.

Hopefully your craving is satisfied today, though!

Libby, if that craving ever hits again, one of our family favorites is this easy bourbon chicken recipe. The best thing is that you can make it with stuff you have in the pantry--I hate having to go the store for just one weird item in a recipe. And this one tastes like what you get at the mall!
