Things Mia Said While Cooking 😭👩🏽‍🍳

Cooking as a beginner is actually insane because why am I expected to know what “add salt and pepper to taste” means BEFORE the food is even cooked 😭😂

And don’t ask me how many times I tried to pronounce Worcestershire sauce because honestly… none of them sounded right 💀

I’m starting to realize recipes really be assuming everybody already knows certain things meanwhile I’m over here needing step-by-step instructions like:
“okay now blink twice and stir” 😭🤍

The setup may be questionable 😭💪🏽
But we’re getting the workout DONE regardless 😂

Honestly it’s a win-win because the habits she sees me practice now are habits she’ll hopefully grow up applying to herself too 🥺🤍

Motherhood definitely changed what consistency looks like for me, but I’m learning that showing up imperfectly still counts.

I didn’t realize how much babies truly learn just by watching us until this lol📚

Now every time Summer sees a book she wants to grab it, open it, flip the pages, and “read” too.

Tiny humans are ALWAYS observing us and honestly… that’s both beautiful and terrifying 😂🩷

Y’all… the baby I grew and pushed out is making significant SOUNDS now 🥺😭😭😭

Like I know “Dada” isn’t technically a real word yet lol but REAL words are coming and it all happened so fast 🥺

Do y’all HEAR that sweet little voice?! 😭💗

I hear her and instantly see where we started, how tiny she used to be, and how far we’ve already come. Motherhood is honestly so surreal sometimes because what do you mean this little person is growing up alreadyyyy 😭

Someone pass me a tissue please 🥺💗

Taking care of a baby while being sick yourself is differentttt 😭🤧

Luckily for me my symptoms are worst at night and first thing in the morning, and for her it’s mostly at night 🥲

I’ve really been trying to be intentional about what I feed her, and honestly I enjoy the whole discovery process — learning what babies can and can’t eat, figuring out how to prepare things, watching her learn textures & reactions, all of it 🥹🤍

It definitely adds a little chaos to my days though… and I already know it’s only gonna get crazier as she grows and starts eating more often 😭 lol but I love it.

This mama is TIRED and ready for a nap 🥱💤

Welcome to Cooking with Mia 👩🏽‍🍳😭
A beginner cooking series for people who wanna laugh, help, or learn with me lol.

By now we all know I don’t fully know what I’m doing… but I AM willing to learn 😂 So send me your recipes, tips, tricks, and meal ideas!

Today I made pan seared BBQ chicken 🍗
…and absolutely tore up the second batch 😭

BUT I learned my lesson:
make sure the chicken is fully cooked BEFORE adding the BBQ sauce lol.

Overall though? Taste wise I’d honestly give it an 8/10 👀 It was actually pretty good.

What should I try making next?
