I hope you had a splendid January while I was gone. <br />Congrats on getting those chapters done and I wish you the best of luck with your remaining ones!<br />1600 words is a lot! I know because my first children's book is 1400 words and this took me a great deal of time to work on and edit! <br />Don't ever think any amount of words is too small. We all dance to a different beat but the outcome always radiates from our passion.

I always try to cook enough that I won't have to cook again the next day, but with 3 boys in the house (and yes, I'm counting my partner in that number), if there's anything leftover at the end of dinner, it gets eaten.Kate Larkindalehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06202347563426692610noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5262336202740698523.post-17509079663189882062015-01-25T13:56:17.376-05:002015-01-25T13:56:17.376-05:00YAY, HOORAY for your writing!

I'm amazed that you have time for cooking on top of that - when I write I'm usually in a world of chaos and forget basic things all together, like eating! It's 4pm before I know it and I still haven't had breakfast! I wish I was more organized and I'm sure the hubs wishes I would find a way to cook and write!

Unless it's something I LOVE like tacos or pizza.

If I had to fathom I guess, I'd say about 1,300-1,600. <br /><br />The food sounds delicious; it's too bad that I can't really cook yet without supervision. I do little things though. I did get myself a slow cooker, so I'm going to experiment with some recipes that can stay for most of the day and I can't ruin. LOL. <br /><br />As usual, thanks for hosting the blog hop and for all the Friday Freebies you give us. Love ya!!
