How many of us frankly get up in the mornings worrying about , Oh My God what should I make that both the kids will have happily !
With my elder son growing years, I really did not bother much about it, maybe he was more giving and would like to eat whatever I cooked. I am not a self proclaimed good cook but I do get compliments for the same often. So, I am made to believe that I can cook to save my life. This also arose an unknown confidence in me and when my younger son started growing up to actually talk his thoughts, I revisited my culinary skills. It took me a few years to actually understand ( much to my relief..phew !) that he had a
different taste to food than all of us.
He would be super excited when it came to crunchies , biryani and Non Vegetarian varieties. I had to rework on my skills and draft a menu everyday which pleased both and satisfied both pallets.
With working schedule, It becomes difficult to have elaborate cooking everyday rather frankly any day of the week.But little did I realize that making quick foods actually took me out of the practice to make any recipe that takes time. In fact, I started looking out for shorter options of the longer recipes. I drool over the blogs where people post such beautiful pictures and admire them, but that's it ! I intend no further .. am happy the way it is for me..
My blog has a collection of such recipes. I keep claiming I don't click exotic pictures of the food nor do I present in the best manner , but just a humble thought to share right out of my table.
I make proper breakfast, snacks and lunch in the morning and my son's classmates and their mothers wonder how I do that...I never felt any pressure in executing all these in the morning, ofcourse I get up by 5 am..that's a habit I have developed over years. My morning time includes the ME time that I have with my cup of coffee, which I try not to compromise or it reflects the entire day in the the "not so happy" way..
It becomes easy when I plan my menu in advance and I generally do that for the week and also prepare my ingredients for next day meals in advance.
I would love to share the details of the same in my next blog because , it will take sometime and you have already been with me for a long while now.. so until we meet next...
Have wonderful week !
