Being a Student/ Wife/Mother
August 26th 2009 05:16
I'm at the middle of week three in my new life of being a student as well as all the other things I am/do.
And the most important point, in terms of this particular blog, is how much easier life for the whole family can be ig you get a little organised. Yesterday, while I was doing the one hour drive to where I am now studying, I thought, hmm, I must remember to get the mince out tomorrow morning.
Because I am wife/mother/cook and the rest of it, feeding everyone is mostly my job. And it is the part of being a housewife that I enjoy the most - I love cooking, it's creative and I get see, hear, smell, taste the benefits of doing it well.
So, mince, I decided yesterday. And wonder of wonders, I remembered to get the mince out this morning and leave it to defrost naturally while I was off learning about Dealing with challenging bevaviour, or whatever title they gave this subject.
And when I got home the mince was nearly defrosted, so the next step is to decide - spag bog, or something else. I know hubby and son would love it to be spag bog, but I'm hankering for something more creative than that.
We have some pastry in the freezer. Could we have lamb sausage rolls? We also have lots of hamburger buns in the freezer - How about Lambburgers? Decisions, decisions. I'll have to check out how many sheets of pastry there are. If there's only one, the sausages are out.
Hmm, still not sure. The joys of being the cook. At least the mince is there ready, if only my brain was as ready with an answer. Got to go now, I have a freezer to look into.
At least the dogs always love what I give them for tea. They just love dog food, YUM!
