Cooking
1. When did you learn to cook? I came from a family of great country cooks. So cooking was an important thing in our family, both sides. But it wasn't until I was in the 7th grade that I relly applied my hand at actually cooking. I had sort of helped mom along the way before, but in Home EC. I really got into preparing a meal. I loved it so I took Home Ec every year I could because I was thinking very seriously about being a Home Ec Teacher.
2. How often in the week do you cook? Order in? Go out? I expect to cook every meal each week. We have no set day we go out to eat, but if we are out for some other purpose it is pretty easy to convince hubs to stop and grab lunch or dinner!!! Mainly, because he isn't that keen on doing the dishes when I cook!
3. Which foods are absolutely necessary at a cookout? Hamburgers, hotdogs, chili, usually Cole slaw, baked beans, chips and dip, and if we are very fancy, potato salad!
4. Do you have a meal you are especially good at making? or that people often request for you to make? I love to make Chinese stir fry, spaghetti, homemade vegetable beef soup, beef stew for a few!
Yum. Everything sounds good.
ReplyDeleteI like beef stew a lot! It's been so long since I made homemade soup but since I have cut out most bread soup isn't on the menu much because I just love crispy bread with soup. I loved home ec in school! Thanks for joining in.
ReplyDeleteI'm the same way with number 2. I have a plan to cook most nights but if that changes than no worries...like, sometimes my hubby will call and ask if I would rather do pizza from our local corner store instead of cook, or if he's at Costco he'll pick up one of their meals.
ReplyDeleteI think it was nice having Home Economics but I didn't pay that much attention in class. Nice that you had a family of cooks to learn from. Dishes are never fun to do! Sounds like a good cookout. Yum on the foods you like to make. Since you are a no-reply to your email I couldn't respond back that way. Thanks for stopping over. Have a nice weekend.
