My blog title is entirely true.Who knew I could survive skydiving almost 1000 jumps without killing myself? Nonetheless.
This is my first blog quote challenge and have never done one before, as I am challenged enough just to get at least one original recipe with photos once a week. But I made an exception this time because: 1. I do enjoy the blogs I follow that challenged me and 2. I got laid up last night after injuring my foot in a stupid tripping accident so had time to peruse the interwebz for quotes instead of cooking. I made hubby cook dinner last night while I yelled instructions to him across the room with my foot up on ice. NO, that doesn’t make these challenges any less than what they are, they are a wonderful way of linking up with new people. They are just a way to “share the love” so to speak.
Thank you Jean from White House Red Door and Natascha from Natascha’s Palace for the nominations! Please do check out their recipes if you have the chance.
I’m breaking the chain somewhat as I’m not doing three days in a row and instead posting them all at once, nor nominating anyone else (I’m a rebel that way), but I am linking to these lovely blogs, though. Enjoy! ❤

Quote 3:
This last one really hit home with me, because really? I cannot imagine. Onions rule!
And you quoted the magnificent Julia!!! You rock, my friend! Sorry to hear about your accident. Take it easy and thank you for sharing these! ❤❤❤❤❤

Nobody believes how often I drop things, burn, or cut myself while cooking when they taste the result, but it is true nonetheless. My husband rolls his eyes too and says it’s because I lack patience. I know I’m still a klutz when I do things more slowly.

I am not specifically in your “KLUTZ” club however, I have stubbed my big toe enough to know what that feels like- a big OUCH! Heel soon-and keep yelling cooking instructions to the HUBS (that may just be the best to come from this??? LOL…XOXOXO CCC

LOVE these quotes!!! “…be fearless and above all, have fun!” is on my About page! The onion quote is so funny, I completely agree; all you have to do is start sautéing some onions and people are drawn to the kitchen, wondering what incredibly delicious items are in store. Forget the smell of baking cookies- it’s all about the sautéing onions! So sorry to hear about your foot- but at least you got a night off?! xo

Skydiving Kathryn, I’m impressed big time! I’m a big fan of Julia Child, she is the one that got me cooking a long time ago and I met her in person. She was quite the lady.
Have a speedy recovery
