Cooking

I am not about to share my curry recipes with you or tell you how to stop your Yorkshire puddings sticking. Preparing good food is something I really enjoy. It is one of the things I am really going to find frustrating when I cant serve up food in the way I do today. I am trying to mentally prepare myself for when I accidentally drop the casserole or miss the gravy boat while filling it. I suppose its all about doing things in a different way in order to avoid such mishaps but its hard, sometimes, to see what is about to happen unless I stop and do it in a way that is easier. I think this is the answer to a lot of potential accidents, not just in the kitchen.

I have said for a long time I could do with a kitchen trolley to transfer plates of food to the table.

I enjoy the cooking programmes and get a lot of ideas from them. But I do object to the amount fat, chocolate and sugar that they use.

Don't think I'm a health freak, I'm not. The trouble I have is that I want to cook everything they  make and eat it. At the moment I manage to hold back, just a little, and work the surplus off in the gym.

As time goes on, I can foresee, having to control my intake in order to maintain a healthy weight. At this moment in time I am not one to turn down the offer of a slice of cake with my tea ( just to be sociable).
