Chow time

Normally I am not very creative.  I think that

comes from growing up in a rigid society, but

I can’t say for sure sice I did not have anything

to compare it to growing up.

However, when it comes to cooking I am a little

more creative.

Like a recipe that I’ve kind of made up one day– to me that is

and act of creativity.  Not massive creativity, but a little of

it nonetheless.

I’ve used all kinds of incredients when cooking also– everything

from cooked capon, chopped hotdogs, or leftover salsa.

Today I decided to make lasagna. I rarely buy canned sauce

because my sister makes it for me.   Delicious.

For me, making lasagna is a reflective time like washing

dishes in the sink.. you can’t rush it but you can enjoy

it for the quiet meditation that it is.

At any rate, this time around I threw in a whole chicken

cut up into the sauce simmering.  Turned out ok.

My tip for making a great dish? Grate some carrots onto

it at the end. Not too much.
A neighbor loves to make waffles. There’s nothing like

some waffles in trade for a little lasagna.  Works for me.
