Living to Eat

I’m a big believer in thinking a blip is always in front of you …if you really look.
Today is no different.
Just back from Zumba and my first thought is always what l will choose to have for dinner.
Living on my own make me more disciplined in planning ahead. I do small batches of cooking about every two weeks. no more than four portions, usually eat one and freeze the rest. 
Then l buy other items like fresh pasta and divide it into six portions and freeze five.
Today l decided to have a meat free day after the weekend so got out some pasta. 
Will make a quick fresh sauce this evening when l get back in from Granny duty.
Won’t be having wine as l try to avoid alcohol mid week.
Or bread as l avoid that too Monday to Friday.

Now the book: Last autumn l was telling Tim how l love to see Stanley Tucci cook, so much passion in every squeeze of a lemon or in the chopping of a tomato….
so he bought me this book as a Christmas present. (good son, he listens to me).
It’s a joy for a food lover like me to read, the few recipes are good but it is the writing that will make me read the book again and again.
Buon Appetito!
