Alot of times, I simply hate having to go home and cook after a daunting day of taking care of the kids, running errands, cleaning the house and grocery shopping! But,being a somewhat educated woman (hahaha!) I know that eating out on a regular basis is neither good for waist nor wallet. So on the occasions when I am to conquer my quick fix-I go home and well,cook!! Don't get me wrong I don't want to give the impression that I do not enjoy cooking,because it is quite the contrary-I ABSOLUTELY LOVE COOKING!!! I can remember going to the library checking out cookbooks as early as nine. Coming home and making dishes for my mom and myself,some of which I still fix today! I use to get so excited at the prospect of preparing my own special dishes,as I gave my mom my weekly grocerylist
. People often talk of what one's purpose in life is,I'm sure getting out my trusty pots and pans is somewhere in my calling. As I said I wasn't the typical kid at thirteen I pulled out subscription cards for cooking book clubs and ordered away. I still have my Berry Crocker,Chinese Cooking. I can still fondly recall the night I saw the adertisement for a dynamic gadget called the V-Slicer, I had to have it !! It sliced, it diced,it crinkled veggies-I was amazed. I called my Mom, the next day and asked her to send me the money order so that I could order it right away. I just put her to rest ( the V-Slicer,that is !!) last year. A truly well made product indeed. I actually mourned the loss, afterall I had it for approximately 18 yrs.!
Last evening I went to Target to get me some almond milk and wound up staying in the store for plum near nhour. After,purchasing tyhe milk,and million other impulse items-never shop whilde hungry. I was soooo tempted to go to the mall and purchase a cheese pizza,but I did not. I had started this blog before leaving the house,and had the motivation to stay on track. I pondered what I could fix that would not only be quick, but most importantly FILLING. Earlier in the day I had considered tuna salad,but wound up making french bread pizza and a simple salad-dinner served.
