Cooking, cooking, cooking!

Cooking - that seems to be what I have been up these past few weeks. I've had company at least 4 day a week the past two weeks. I am working hard at connecting with students over the dinner hour on the weeks that I do not have any classes - so there have been folks here Sunday thru Wednesday for the past few weeks. It's been a lot of fun.

Typically I go to the grocery store on an almost daily basis to get ingredients fresh for whatever I am making that day. In an effort to preserve my time this year I've been making a weekly grocery list and trying to get all my shopping done on Saturday. This is how most of the people I know do their grocery shopping. It is more time efficient, but I actually miss the way I used to do it.

I miss the grocery store - weird, I know! I LOVE walking the aisles and looking at the food - wondering what new dish I could create, comparing prices between the various stores in town, and running into all sort of people I know. Plus I miss the checkers at my favorite grocery store, Aldi's - I liked seeing the regularly and being able to give them an encouraging word each time I was there - something you need when you do a job in customer service.

Welp, that's all for now. Hopefully I'll have a more exciting post next time!
