Cooking

Isn't cooking fun?  I mean, get a good recipe and go for it.  I was in the mood for Curry Chicken and so I pulled up a recipe on line, it looked good and so I made it.  It was a recipe for the crock pot and it went pretty well.  I actually made it yesterday.  When I say it went pretty well that is only because I could have used a little more salt in the beginning.  I was actually fasting during the prep and could not take a taste to see how it was.  No matter, it turned out fine.  Anyway, I love curry.  It's a South African thing.  There was a lot of curry down there as Indian food was a major part of society.  I loved it and still do though I rarely eat it now.   The crock pot version was pretty easy to make so I may have to cook this more often.  I am going to have to work on the kids a bit more.  Jack ate his up without an issue, Andy didn't do so well which surprises me and Natty had a few bites, said it was good and then wouldn't eat anymore.  I have decided that Natty may be the pickiest eater I have ever met.  Tonight's meal for her was Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Triple Decker Sandwich. 

Well, when nobody is eating your stuff that means one thing - left overs.  I am a fan.  The boys have really been enjoying Mac and Cheese and that was their meal of choice tonight so I decided I would go with left overs.  I was not disappointed. 

I have been trying my hand at low calorie Ice Cream options.  I don't quite have it perfected but made a pretty good batch of Peanut Butter flavored ice cream this evening.  It was Family Home Evening and we had some of that for dessert.  It was delicious. 

So yes, cooking is fun.  I ejnoy it.  Eating leftovers - I enjoy that too.  Well, now the only question is what to cook next?
