last night DH cooked, and it was great. Jamie Oliver's Shrimp and Pea Risotto (I had to help due to time contraint).  :P

Tonight is thai salad, as he had planned both the risotto and a thai salad and we didn't have time for the fancy salad-i made one with spinach and a few bits....

And i'm sitting here planning out the week's meals and exercise schedule.  Man, it's hard...but worth it!

Well I thought I was getting off kitchen duty for the weekend, but...  Steve made a request for my recently-dubbed 'posh bangers & mash' -- so that's what I'm making.  (He missed the Dr Who episode that aired last night & it's on again tonight, so I think he wanted out of kitchen duty! :P

When I was 5 years old, my mother always told me that happiness was the key to life. When I went to school, they asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up. I wrote down ‘happy’. They told me I didn’t understand the assignment, and I told them they didn’t understand life. ~ John Lennon

I'm afraid I've been on a homestyle comfort food cooking roll lately. ;D  As I have not been gaining weight (hooray!) - I must be controlling portions or doing something right?

Tonight:  homemade chicken & noodles (I'm wondering if this is a Midwestern kind of thing -- it's typical of what you might eat in an Amish household or Amish-inspired restaurant.)  Simple & good.  I haven't made my own egg noodles in a long time, but I use a pack from Morrisons that works closely enough to the real deal.
