In case you didn't know, cooking is my new thing. My hobby. I asked Brand what my hobby should be and he said cooking, and I was like no that can't be it. But when I would get home from work with a little hunger sitting in my stomach, I would look through the cookbook or recipes online and seriously get inspired to cook! To create a meal! I have a feeling it's a little like what artists get when they paint or take pictures or make a film. I've always been inspired to help people, that's easy. But to be inspired to do something completely different is a pretty cool feeling. It might be lame...but if I have to cook dinner and eat anyway...might as well have fun right? I'm not great at it. I think I'm pretty decent for a first-timer. But I love it. And Brand loves it too.
Today we had homemade chicken nuggets and parmesan jo-jos. It was pretty good! My favorite part is I know how I want to improve it for next time. Makes me feel like a real cook when I can taste it and go "It needs more this and less of that".
I'm sure there will be a lot of pictures of the following three things in this blog: Brand, our animals, and food. They take up a lot of my life..so get used to it :)
Though I told Brand that I want to venture out and take pictures of things outside of my home. But I haven't been inspired. Maybe I could show you my "mobile office" aka my car. Or the houses I see that I dream about buying. When I left work today there was a homeless man sleeping outside our back door. I wanted to take a picture of that because to me that captures something more than chicken nuggets can. But I didn't feel right exploiting his situation. So you'll probably never see a picture of the dirty, real things I see everyday..but at least you know they're there.
Food is a great thing to be passionate about. Seriously, I heart food. I think it's great that you're learning a new hobby, especially one with delicious results!
