Brain break
You know, something I've always tended to do when I have a lot on my mind is cook. It's probably my way of giving my brain a break by forcing myself to concentrate on something else. I remember quietly flipping out about something one Summer and ending up with a freezer full of home made ice cream. (Oh boy, but they were good.)
I no longer have an ice cream machine, but I am making up for it. Last night I made a delicious Bouillabaissy-type fish soup that I made up, with sourdough garlic toasts. This afternoon I have made honey cupcakes with golden syrup meringue icing. They smell fantastico.
Although it's all about the cooking and not so much the eating, there is still eating to be had. I can see I am going to have to be careful that I don't grow extra bazooms on the back to make up for what I am losing on the front.
