Pots and Pans

They say the way to a man’s heart is through his stomach. That, I’ve proven to be true, at least for my husband. But if that’s the case, then a woman should have only the best in her kitchen to be able to come up with the best dishes for her man’s stomach, right? Well, at least that’s an argument I can use to get myself a new set of pots and pans.

I’m actually looking at getting a good set of Induction Cookware to go with a new Induction Cooker. I know it’s a major change to what we’re using right now but I know it’s a good investment because of the advantages and savings along the way, especially with the cost of electricity since it keeps increasing on a monthly basis.

Hopefully when we move to our own, I’ll have a say in MY kitchen and what’s in it. After all, I need to make sure to keep the man’s heart happy right? Then I should definitely have my dream kitchen.

What’s your calling?

I’ve always thought that maybe Cooking and/or Baking is my true calling in life. It’s not because I cook well or bake well, but ever since I was a child, I’ve been a fan of cooking and baking shows. I can watch for hours and hours and not get tired of trying to race my fingers to try and copy recipes.

When I was a child, I know my mom used to bake. I don’t remember what she baked, but I just know she baked because what I remember is the smell of freshly baked goodies. She’s also a great cook. A lot of my relatives ask her to cook their favorite meals because they can’t do it on their own, even if my mom gave them the exact recipe to follow. My mom is the kind of cook who doesn’t have secrets. That’s just the way she is.

Now that I’m a mother myself, I would also love to share those moments with my little girl. I hope to save enough to buy my own materials and gadgets, from the best mixers and bowls, to kitchenaid food processor parts, and of course the molds and sheets. I would love for my daughter to remember that baking and cooking is our special time together.

I’m loving the fact that even though my little one is just 3, she seems interested when I still watch my cooking and baking shows. Since she’s showing interest, I plan to pursue my dream, of baking and cooking with her. If it’s not MY calling, maybe it’s hers? If it still isn’t, then it’s still fine with me because I just know we’ll have such a blast together.
