I've been thinking about food and cooking for myself lately. It's very difficult to cook for one. There aren't many portions designed for cooking for one, and I could make a lot and freeze the rest or eat leftovers, but I'm not sure I'd want to eat that much of one thing. That was my problem last year as well.
So my solution is to cook for many. That's what I'm going to try to do this summer and continuing in the fall. I'll cook meals for about three, and if anyone wants to come over and eat with me, they can just call and let me know. I'll probably have a tip jar to cover the extra cost of groceries, but it's something I'd like to do. Besides, it's bribery to make people come and visit me.
In the fall when I'm living with Ethan and Rebecca, I think it might be neat to alternate days that we cook for the apartment. I don't know what either of them thinks of that, but it might be a decent idea to make sure we all eat well and regularly.
On that note, I'm going to go make a pear pie with gruyere baked into the crust, and then homemade refried beans for Mexican food tonight.
