I was 26 when I started cooking; up until then, I just ate.

What We Ate (Week ending July 11)

This week wasn’t creative at all. I just cooked familiar foods. But that was okay, because we had lots of food, we ate as a family every evening, I prepared dinner in less than an hour every night, and my son ate the same dinner as the rest of us every single night. That was really nice! We’ve already eaten all the leftovers.

My favorite was, of course, the dessert-like Sunday dinner. Monday’s chicken pot pie stew was okay, but the pastry shells were not nearly as good as the buttermilk biscuits are (I didn’t have any buttermilk this week). The sausage balls were not very good because I bought an inexpensive sausage. I learned my lesson: buy good sausage! The cheaper option was very gross. Also, I’ve decided that I really don’t like spaghetti. Maybe I just need to find a better recipe for tasty spaghetti.
