From Scratch

Have you ever done this?

I look at the contents of the fridge, I peruse the ingredients in the cupboard and I despair. There are 101 combinations I could prepare for dinner but which one will give the family a hearty, five a day filling, taste sensation...and more to the point what will I enjoy cooking most?

I discovered early on that me and ready prepared or packet meals do not mix. Heard of the woman who can burn jelly, well look no further! However if you give me all the raw ingredients, music n my ipod and time I love nothing more than preparing a meal from scratch.

Tonight to add to my dilemma my brother-in-law may or may not be coming to dinner, so we have to be able to stretch whatever we have to feed another hulking male, no mean feat when you have a 6 foot 2 giant of a husband and a growing 10 year old with and appetite of a fully gorn man!

So tonight ladies and gentlemen we will be having homemade meatballs in bolognase sauce with spaghetti. Every little bit prepared by hand, by me, whilst singing along to Janis Joplin, Indigo Girls and a little Prince, and do you know what, I've enjoyed every second of the preparation and I will get that lovely warm glow inside when silence reigns for the duration of our evening meal.

A job well done :)
