I bought a copy of Canadian Living this afternoon. It was kind of an impulse thing - just like the few times I have bought Cosmo, I was suckered by the cover type. But while Cosmo is all about the effortless head exploding orgasm, Canadian Living is all about the mom stuff...and the cover promised "10 one pot dinners." I thought, hey, I could go for some new easy dinner recipes. What I failed to realize is that 7 of those recipes would involve a Dutch oven (wtf??) and the other three would involve meat I have never eaten, let alone cooked with.

So, much like my reaction after reading Cosmo, I'm left wondering why I'm such a tool. I should have gone with my instincts and left the Canadian Living on the shelf. Now an Archie Double Digest - that's the kind of supermarket impulse buy that's more my speed. I should just leave Canadian Living to the adults. You know. The people with the Dutch ovens.
