I look through my fridge and realize I have some things I better use before they are wasted so I become a cooking nut. I see 2 red peppers...confession...I didn't even remember they were in there. I see 4 plum tomatoes thisclose to their demise so I need to do something with them...hey wait..mozzarella cheese. I know I will make a small platter for my hubby and I and it will be a Caprese Salad, with some roasted peppers and cheese and I will slow roast the plum tomatoes and serve the other side with that and cheese...Nice...lunch is served! Whew!! I need to be mindful but I also am going to need my imagination and some creativity too. I roast more new baby potatoes with rosemary/oil/garlic for like an hour (to die for....you must try!!). I comb through recipes that I have never made that I always pushed to the side for something more fancy or challenging. Well guess what? My husband and I both need to come down and few pegs and eat whatever it is God wants us to eat. We have been high on the hog for too long. I tell my husband every day he needed this lesson too. He only likes chicken breast, no thighs (do you know how much cheaper thighs are to buy and eat?), no leftovers, no pasta b/c he ate so much as a kid. Well my little lovebug of a husband it is time
YOU come down to reality too and listen to what God has called
US to do. So I tell him he has to eat whatever I make no matter what and his response? "It is fine I was just spoiled, I will eat whatever it is you serve." Wow...Lord you are amazing...:)
