cOOking JUST like mUm,,,,,,,,,,,NOT!!!!!!! My Mum was not the world's Greatest Cook. There were a few things that she cooked well but most of the time. Ewwwwwwwwwwwwwww Usually, it was Dad who did all the fancy cooking and we had to clean up the mess. So When I got married the first time.........It was Betty Crocker who taught me how to cook. It didn't do any good because nothing compared to my first husband's Mother's Cooking. She was a Tennessee Farm Girl. Yeah Sure! For various reasons, that marriage went South thus I was a Single Working Mother for two boys.I learned the beauty of Crock Pot and Micro Wave Cooking. I learned to be a production cook. FAST!!!!!! My second husband also complained about my cooking. He would always make a big giant mess when he cooked and it took forever for him to get it done. ( hmmmmm.............seems vaguely familiar) Fine Cooking can't be rushed, he would say. Fine, I'll do the dishes and make the reservations but if the were really hungry, I would cook. ]The Texas Trucker moved his in and she cooked all of her Daddy's favorite fried foods. Ugh! AND......... himself would belittle his for being on the chubby side, It was a minor detail that himself ate bigs bags of Snickers Bars and Gulped Down Bottles of Sugar Filled Dr. Pepper. He was also a major league Couch Potato when he was home from the road. It's a Lucky Escape that I didn't marry that guy. I would have been rolled down the asle at the wedding. I would have looked like a big fluffy white snowball. I found Wal-Mart instead of Love. I worked for Wal-Mart in Texas, Nevada and Virginia. I was all alone so George Foreman did all of my Cooking. Now Mr. Joe  is in the picture and he is such a delight to cook for. He likes everything I cook.  Of course, Dad never complained about mUm's Cooking but she sure did complain about the messes he made. I rely on my memories from Betty Crocker and consult with All Recipes. Top Chef is also showing me some great cooking tips. It's Surf and Turf for Mr. Joe tonight.  Abracadabra  |
