honey ginger chicken with peppers stirfry



i have a confession. i can't eat with chopsticks. i always have high hopes going in, but about five minutes into it and scooping up three grains of rice or watching noodles slip off, i frustratingly give up and get out the fork.

but not tonight. no way. tonight, i conquered the chopsticks.

i ate the whole bowl with them. no joke. it took me 30 minutes, but i did it! one more thing to check off the list!
