I love cooking. I like experimenting with new dishes and making things up, as well as pulling out the old favorites that we love. I have always enjoyed cooking but it was always a Big Deal to me. I didn't really start to regularly cook - dinner every night, making lunch, cooking yummy breakfasts - until I started to lose weight about a year and a half ago (I've lost about 30 pounds). To me, cooking is a creative chore. Ya gotta eat and I'm so glad I enjoy making yummy food and having a little fun with it. The kitchen in my new house is probably three times the size of my kitchen in Los Angeles - plus I have a kitchen window (I can see the Petroglyph hills outside) and a garbage disposal and a dishwasher now. Oh my word. Loving it. I spend a lot of time in the kitchen - it's great to suddenly have a nice space.
