Ok, so this may seem strange, but lately I have been feeling like cooking really isn't all that hard. I don't know why I had it in my mind that it was, maybe because I really never did it. :) It always seemed it was easier to put something frozen in the oven or something from a box on the stove, but tonight we had a great diner and it really only took us maybe 10 minutes of prep time. We used all fresh veggies, had some great potatoes, some cheap steak and threw it all together. For those of you thinking, man this girl has been married for a whole year and is just figuring this out now?, well kind of i guess. I always felt I needed to follow recipes and needed all these crazy ingredients to make a great meal, when in reality I can be as creative as I want.
This is all very random and yet it seems like it's going to change my world significantly. Just thought I would keep people in the loop with what is going on in my brain. Uh, oh, maybe a blog was a bad idea ;)
On a more serious note, we had an awesome first day of orientation. I think this year is going to challenge us to grow in all areas of our lives. Growing deeper in our walk(s) with the Lord. Growing deeper in love and leaning more on Christ in our marriage. And tons of other stuff, but my brain is failing me right now. It's going to be a great year.

ReplyDeletepage says he remembers eavesdropping in on a conversation i was having with a friend and my saying how fearful i was to get married (this was before we were even dating) for the sole reason that i'd have to cook for my husband.
ReplyDeleteanyway, now i love cooking and am working to master the art of meal planning and freezing the extras..best of both worlds..pulling a homemade meal from the freezer. ha!
