Thanksgiving Dinner

Everyone is getting busy on what they are going to have for Thanksgiving dinner. For a change I am not one of them. My family and I will be going to my husband’s cousins for dinner, which the husband is a chef. So foods are delicious. I will be bringing spring roll. I will be making chocolate cream pie everyone loves this pie. This will be a no diet day.

But on the weekend I will be cooking turkey. This will be an exclusive family thanksgiving dinner. I will be preparing everyone’s favorite food. Kids already have requests.

Anyway either you are cooking or not. Enjoy the time spending with your family. Don’t forget to have fun and be thankful of what you have.

Smell Fishy

I don't know why but my kids are so picky w/ foods.  When they were little girls they ate anything I feds them.  Now forget about it.  For supper I prepared baked fish.  Fish that already been deboned but just the smell along they hate it.  I don;t know what to do.  I just hope that the picky time will pass.  I wish i can just cook anything and no one will complain and say "I don't like this and that".  Unlike my husband whatever i put on the table as long as no fish heads he will eat in a heart that if he is not stuck infront of the computer playing a game.  No matter what I have no escape.  Maybe I will let them starve or cook their own meal.  we will see how they like that.  What you think?  Is it a good idea?

What's for dinner?

Everyday, every morning before i go to work i have to think what i will be cooking for dinner. I need to defrost a meat in order to be ready once i get home. I have to think foods that I did not cook for a while. My kids are so picky. They might like this certain food this time but don't expect they will still on the next time. I have to learn to cook dfferent dishes. This is why I have this blog maybe I can share some recipe(s) to some mother out there.
