18881, It ain't convenient
Posted by k_orr, Wed Jan-31-01 07:03 AM
I love to cook, but it takes a lot of planning and time to cook breakfast, pack a lunch, and then prepare dinner.

Curry chicken 2 nights ago (Marg Kari - indian style not Jamaican style like I normally rock it)

- chicken - cut it up
- cilantro, onions, garlic, ginger - grate/chop, dice
- yogurt - had to go to the store for that
- brown the chicken, brown the onions, bring back the chicken, add in the spices and vegetables, bring to boil, and then let simmer for 20 minutes.

By the time all was said and done, ingredients prepared, everything bought, and then cooking, I was about 90 minutes into it. (and damn if I forgot to make the Naan.)

Of course, now I have curry chicken for 3-4 days, so I don't have to go through the process, but cooking doesn't jive with my broadband access style of living.

But I've cut down my junk food to friday lunches with the folks at work, and saturday lunch and dinner with the squad/and or girls.

peace
