After spending months
salivating over different recipes posted (pictures included) on Facebook, I
decided to copy and paste anything that appealed to me; and which I knew my
family would also like to try. Over the last few weeks, I’ve cut, diced and
chopped. I’ve stirred, boiled, and baked. I’ve tasted and savored, and
delighted in new aromas and flavor combinations.
We’ve enjoyed Chicken
and Cheese Enchiladas, Cowboy Cornbread and Olive Garden’s Zuppa Toscana Soup.
My husband has developed a love for Sticky Bun Breakfast Ring on weekend
mornings instead of his usual pancakes. We’ve discovered that we all love
strong flavors. If feta cheese is in the recipe, I know I’ll get raving
reviews.
Making changes in
life can simply come from adding a new spice to the rack or finding a tasteful
way to cook Kale. Little adjustments and experiments often lead to the most
unexpected findings, both about cooking—and about life!
