i don't go all-out gourmet bullshit like i used to. but at the holidays i do like to produce a special meal.
and food is so expensive for good fresh ingredients, you don't want to screw it up.
since my parents died i don't do big fancy meals anymore, the pleasure i took in that is gone.
i still like growing my own fresh veggies and herbs. don't bake my own bread anymore.
but there is satisfaction in doing something well. and eating well.
these days i like the easy things i do in a crockpot that don't require so much attention. but can still be delicious.
