Day 49: Cooking

When baking, follow directions.  When cooking, go by your own taste.  -Laiko Bahrs

I want to learn to cook more. I've cooked in two restaurants, and I really enjoyed it. Cooking is a lot of fun. I love to cook for others, and I want to expand my cooking and baking skills.

Cooking food, is healthier, and cheaper than going out to eat constantly, or eating ready prepared foods. I want to eat healthier, and cook more often. Cooking for one doesn't have to mean TV Dinners, or something out of can. I should be able to cook a healthy meal for myself, and enjoy it.

Cooking is a great skill to have, and it is fun. It will expand my regular diet, and will help me not just eat the same things over and over again. I really enjoy cooking for others, having family and friends over and cooking dinner. I should do that more often.

My family was supposed to come over this weekend, but we're planning it for next weekend. I'm excited for that. Not sure what I should cook for them yet. Last time I cooked spaghetti, and a fresh salad. Was really good. That was a long time ago though. Could cook that again, since it is simple, and I know how to do it. Or I could expand my skills and try something new. I'll have to see what everyone else feels like having.

I've stopped eating fast food, and am doing good at that. When I've gone to lunch at work, I've tried to go with healthier choices like Subway, and Quiznos subs, rather than Taco Bell and McDonalds constantly. It really makes you feel a lot better eating healthier. I need to get back in the gym this week as well and work out.

This week, cook something new, and get in the gym.
