Well, I thought that this will be mostly read by mammas as they usually cook in the house...maybe I should edit it and say "hello mammas and Galen?" 😋

I like to cook, I'm not the best ever but I have a few things I can make well and I know the basics so am happy to try most things.

This is more than enough, I think! Do you have a favorite dish you like cooking?

Not really a favourite, I just cook what I feel like eating and am not afraid to try something new.

I see. Same for us, we eat pretty much what we feel like eating. But sometimes I wish we had a food routine....

And yet, I have a few meals I like to cook because for these TWO reasons: they're delicious and easy to make
Here are some examples

  • Carbonara Pasta
  • Shrimp and Curry rice
  • Meatballs
  • Oven Baked Potatoes with bacon and stuff on top
  • Crepes
  • T-bone steak with asparagus
  • Chicken rice
  • Tomato Soup

This list can be a lot longer but I just realize it doesnt help you.
But my point here is that I DO have a few favorites I use to make more often than others.

I hope you had a great weekend, Galen :)
We celebrated Easter this weekend, here in Romania. That means a few days with family and much more sleep than usual. 😁

All of the above for me, there's generally nothing I won't try I guess. Interestingly, for the first time ever I did a Christmas ham for Christmas 2022. I was pretty pleased with how it turned out and it tasted excellent; it wasn't as difficult as I had thought It was so will do another. There it is below.

I'm pretty handy in the kitchen really, although I am a simple guy so don't go in for the Masterchef style of food. I prefer good old-fashioned food that is hearty, tastes good and is presented well. I'll leave the fancy stuff for others.

This looks fancy enough LOL. I bet it tastes delicious. Also, the presentation is really nice, the lavander gave the whole thing a special touch.

By the way, did you use orange juice for the ham? I'm trying to become better at marinating meat,as I'm not really good at this at the moment.
