Lady in need.
I am a lady crying out for help from you bloggers. I need to learn something new this year and have chosen it to be the kitchen department; well I’m no good when it comes to that department so I’m asking fellow bloggers to help grow the best person in me when it comes to that department. When I grow up my mother used to cook for us so that we can focus on our studies, and on weekends we would clean, wash our clothes, play with friends, rest a bit then study again, yes that’s what we were doing. The first time I learnt to cook was during December Holidays when I finished writing my matric exams(Yes, I was 15 at that time, I started schooling when I was 4 because I didn’t have anyone to stay with at home and all my friends were going to school). I know someone may ask why I didn’t learn to cook all those years back during holidays. My parents were tough nut to crack, during December Holidays when all scholars have their break from school, me and my siblings were busy being geared up for the following grade, yes that was our life. The only break we always have was the Christmas week and New Year’s week, that’s two weeks, those were our school holidays to us and we got used to it.
Then I went to tertiary and didn’t get time at all to cook, during holidays I would do some holiday jobs to help raise money for this and that, come home late, eat rest a bit and study again. So I didn’t have enough time for kitchen department. Well when I started working I was mostly eating junk food even today I still do that. Well I can cook the basic, as long as it won’t need so many things to prepare, things like rice, pap, chips, fish(that only need a griller), when it comes to meat, I can do it as long as I have marinade, herbs and a spice. My biggest problem is that I’m so tired of eating same food over and over again(roasted Chicken, lamb/beef stew, pasta, fish and chips, that’s what I normally cook and eat, and now I have lost appetite when it comes to this). Can you fellow bloggers help me with some recipes that I can use to cook some interesting food, even if it is what I have listed because you might be doing it differently?
And can you also please shower me with some baking recipes (biscuits, cakes, etc); have tried to Google stuff but they come Greek to me.
Thank you.
