This blog diary is about our mosaic life at Frangipani House; art, mindfulness, travel, walking with our little dog on the beach, the beauty in everyday life. Let the beauty of what you love, be what you do.
BLONDE COOKING DIARY
Monday: It's fun to cook for Kevin. Today I made angel food cake. The recipe said beat 12 eggs separately. The neighbours were nice enough to loan me extra bowls.
Tuesday: Kevin wanted fruit salad for supper. The recipe said serve without dressing. So I didn't dress. What a surprise when Kevin brought a friend home for supper.
Wednesday: A good day for rice. The recipe said wash thoroughly before steaming the rice. It seemed kind of silly but I took a bath anyway. I can't say it improved the rice any.
Thursday: Today Kevin asked for salad again. I tried a new recipe. It said prepare ingredients, lay on a bed of lettuce one hour before serving. Kevin asked me why I was rolling around in the garden.
Friday: I found an easy recipe for cookies. It said put the ingredients in a bowl and beat it. There must have been something wrong with this recipe. When I got back, everything was the same as when I left it.
Saturday: Kevin did the shopping today and brought home a chicken. He asked me to dress it for Sunday. For some reason Kevin keeps counting to ten.
Sunday: Kev's folks came to dinner. I wanted to serve roast, but all I had was hamburger. Suddenly I had a flash of genius. I put the hamburger in the oven and set the controls for roast. It still came out hamburger,
much to my disappointment.
GOOD NIGHT DEAR DIARY. This has been a very exciting week. I am eager for tomorrow to come so I can try out a new recipe on Kevin. If I can talk him into buying a bigger oven, I would like to surprise him with chocolate moose.
How a simple change can make such a difference.
