Lots of ethnic food and I don't mind eating breakfast for dinner or a sandwich. Cooking is relaxing to me, after listening to people's problems all day...
We are probably the only family that spends more on food since the kids left home :).
B: 1 piece ww toast with cherry jam
L: 1/2 ham and cheese sandwich with mustard
D: Went to a wedding, salad, slow cooked beef, corn bread, small helping of vegetarian enchilada casserole that I made. 1 beer, 1 cupcake
Sounds great. I used to enjoy cooking but after a long period of severe depression I kind of lost any enthusiasm for it, and haven't found it again yet. Plus moving to the US 2 years ago, it took me a while to get used to new ingredients etc, and not being able to get some things I took for granted. Hopefully I will rekindle my interest soon.Quote:

DH and I had sticky rice with mango the other day. It's heaven on a plate. I've never made sticky rice. Is it tricky?
I've never made it. I actually bought bamboo basket thing (that looks like a hat) that you cook the rice in, and it sat on the shelf for 5 or 6 years! I must have finally thrown it out, because I forgot I even had it until right now. We just get it at our local Thai place.Quote:

I can't really describe the taste. It's pretty smooth, not "cheesy." It's a Spanish cheese; get it at Trader Joe's for the best price.
