 For the last month I have been living with my dad so I could cook for him. Which has been a big change. unfortunately I had to drop a lot of things in my life (like this blog) to adjust to the new routine. 

I have been really enjoying cooking in smaller quantities unlike normally cooking for the whole 30to 50 people in the community. I have been able to experiment more and that has been fun. 

And I want to share that with everybody again!
