It's 3 hours until dinner and I am still waiting for an idea.
I don't have a monthly menu or even a weekly one. I don't go to bed thinking about tomorrows' meal, instead I wait for an idea to hit.
Some days like today it's getting down to the wire for an idea.
I'm fortunate I don't have kids at home yelling their hungry, been there done that.
It's just me and hubby.
I don't have to cook multiple dishes like my Mom did. I don't even have to be creative because my hubby things frozen pot pies and canned raviolis are great eats. I just have/need/should cook one meal a day....dinner.
I've found as I've gotten older that soup and sandwiches work and so does ice-cream.
Maybe it's a struggle because I have no passion. I once heard a Food Network chef say he jumped out of bed excited about cooking . I crawl out of bed groping for my coffee and I wouldn't call myself excited either, but .......if someone else cooked something......now I'm excited. If we eat out.....excited.......hubby brings home food.......excited.......delivery.....excited......but you can't do that daily and we have already done that lately.....so tonight it's home cooking.....but.......that raisin brand cereal is going to get stale if we don't eat it soon....maybe that's my idea waiting.
