Cooking Camp [Chris]

So many c's......and so clueless.

Chris has somehow talked me into cooking a new dish every week - well, one or two dishes per week.

He said, "You should practise during the week; I am not your lab mouse on weekends."  Half jokingly, of course.

In all honest truth, he would eat and finish anything that I make.  But somehow, I suspect that as part of our preparation to get married, he would feel a lot better if I can turn out decent meals 3 or 4 times a week.

Normally, on weekdays when I'm just eating alone, anything goes.  I eat a lot of veggies and not so much meat.  But Chris, I don't think he will be satisfied without some protein and carbs.  Salads and beans for the whole week would probably turn him green...lol!  He doesn't like beans?!?

So, I will try.  Yes, I made my first dish yesterday and the experience was not as bad as I thought.  I ventured into the supermarket just like all the working moms and grandmas after work and manged to get home with all my groceries.  I was starving by that time, so I actually had a snack and a mini rest before I started cooking.  Cheating, I know.

Real working moms actually wouldn't be able to afford a snack and a break before the chaos begins.

So, training camps, possibly?  I guess there's no better time than now.  Summer's here, school's out, and I'm not so busy =P

Being able to cook the things I like, good;
Being able to like the things I cook, even better =)
