Thank goodness there's training tonight

because I spent the weekend indoors, making delicious food and then eating it! Made creme brulee (burnt cream lol) for the first time (though I suspect it won't be the last haha) and it turned out beautiful! I fired the sugar on top, and we had it for lunch. Indulgent all right!

And what else to do with those leftover egg whites? Pavlova for Sunday pud. And I wonder why I'm fat? Ha ha, no I don't. I enjoy my life, of which cooking is a big part. I love cooking for my son; being a stay at home mum has its upsides, for sure. We do without a whole heap of other stuff that I guess working parents and their kids have (yearly holidays away, new clothes, salon haircuts, gym membership? I don't know). It makes us very inventive, and I spend all my money on food, pretty much. We pay the bills, get a bit of petrol, then I spend on food. Good food. Consequently, we're never sick.

When I worked full-time, I devoted one day to cooking, and filled the tins and freezer with our food. It can be done, and yeah, I cheat sometimes with scrambled eggs for tea, etc. Not often though. It's what you're prepared to do, I suppose.

Amazing
