What to Cook Tomorrow - Especially When Uninspired…?

Hi everyone… I knew this was bound to happen at some point. I have a current lack of inspiration, and I'm not sure what's to blame - be it an insipid section of The Hundred-Foot Journey or just Autumnal Blues? Whatever the case may be, I still have no true inspiration for tomorrow's cooking. Yet I always turn to a rule of mine when these things happen, cook what's going to go bad… (Boy do I have a lot of stuff that's about to go bad…)
As you may imagine, I'm going to have a bunch of things thrown together tomorrow, and I find that I'll probably be making Bruschetta. (I know it's so easy!) Another reason I'm not feeling up to making another meal tomorrow is for another simple reason - leftovers, leftovers, leftovers. (Anyone wanna come over for dinner?)

One thing I'm grateful for right now though is that it's feeling more like Fall. Ricky and I bought some awesome decorations for Halloween, and no we have not put them up yet. (It's too damn early!) However at a local market we did grab two bunches of freshly cut corn stalks - they'll age beautifully through the fall season. (They'll also make excellent compost.)

You may be wondering why I'm mentioning the grateful feelings that I have - or hell you may not care (I wouldn't if I didn't know someone!) There is a reason though as to why I mention it, and it's because I am absolutely dreading reading the last section of The Hundred-Foot Journey… I don't really want to delve too much into it because I'll be reviewing it next Wednesday, but I'll be so disappointed if I feel like I've wasted time on this last half of the book. (For nothing…)
Let's just put it this way - my next book may have to be a Fantasy novel or something to bring back the oomph into my reading.

Have no fear though! The cooking will go on for another week for this novel, and there'll be a review next week as well for those of you wondering why the hell I'm dreading the last quarter of Morais's novel.
Tune back in tomorrow for a guaranteed Bruschetta, and who knows what else!
