“What do I cook today? “ Why does this mundane question come along creeping once every few days of our routine life? You could be juggling a busy schedule between work, home and family yet every day you are squeezing in many a gourmet dinner to quick fixes. You could be a home maker, soccer mom, running your kids from a soccer practice to a piano lesson to a robotics workshop and scheduling your haute cuisine to quick and easy dinners around these activities. But most days you get your dinner ready in half an hour and think why you are not the one hosting the 30 minutes meals show instead of Rachel Ray!
Yet there are some days…. While my chicken is sitting on the counter defrosting from its icy coolness to a thawed out state like a lame duck as if it just went through some rigorous P90X exercise work out! ( why did the duck get the name ‘lame duck’ not the chicken? Actually lame duck has other connotation, but I digress)
Do I make something Indian, Thai, Caribbean, Middle Eastern…. Which cuisine do I want for dinner, what recipe do I use, yet I do nothing and sit on my laptop writing about my dilemma 😉
How often do you think about this question? What do you do then?
