We only have a few weeks left, and I am finally getting into
a routine!!!! When we decided to move to
London. I knew I didn’t want the girls in school full time because I wanted to
be able to explore London with girls in toe.
But I also wanted to have a few days for myself to avoid "burn
out" and have fun. The girls go to a nursery two days a week, and I’m supposed
to use this time to myself. However, I ended up using this time to clean, do
laundry and run family errands. But one day I started to fit in a workout and
from there I started to claim my days off.
I’ve started to take cooking classes.
I started to take cooking classes because I’m not the most
confident cook. I can cook a few staple West Indian dishes, but that’s it. I
have no idea how to cook European, Asian or American foods. I’m so bad that I can’t even sauté a piece of
fish correctly. Thus following a recipe is very difficult for me because I
don’t know how to do the basics. My goal
while in London is to do something for myself that I think is fun and will help
me develop as a person. I love to entertain so I decided I would take some
basic cooking classes. So far, I’ve
taken three classes, (Thai) Coconut
Prawn Curry, (French ) Chicken with Tarragon and Creme Fraiche, and
(Spanish) Cod with Butterbean and Chorizo.
Below is a picture of my favorite dish and the link to the recipe:
Cod with Butterbean
and Chorizo. This was my favorite because it was so simple to make and so yummy!!!!
