Gastromomica

You know that kid in the 4th grade who never talked about anything but Star Wars, or dinosaurs, or the fact that she got to be on a commercial once, because her mom was the marketing director for the company (ok, that might have been too specific)?  Anyway, I’m like that only about food.  I carry around notebook everywhere I go so that I can write down a new recipe idea, keep track of my shopping list, or plan next week’s menu whenever inspiration hits me.  The first thing I learned to cook, when I was about ten years old, was roasted cornish game hens, and I was already proficient in cooking artichokes in the microwave, by then, for a tasty after-school snack.

My kids think I should write a cookbook, or even host a cooking show someday, which is ironic since they won’t eat anything I make that has, a) a vegetable in it, b) doesn’t have melted cheddar in or on it, or c) anything that “looks funny.”  Thats rules out about 98.5% of my repertoire, but I do have a fabulous husband/sous chef/dishwasher who likes everything I make (though he’s not much help with the menu planning, e.g. Me: What should we have for dinner next week? Eli: How about tostadas?  Me: We had that yesterday.  Eli: Well I liked it yesterday….).
