Having Fun

It is only fitting to post a counterbalance to my Stressgiving blurb. How do you make cooking, if you don’t enjoy it as much as me, more fun?

1) You could goof off and create something silly like this Potato Volcano. Nothing says silly like Rosemary spews of ash and Gravy lava flows…

2) Do you play music when you cook? Maybe play some jazz, classical or whatever you enjoy to change the mood.

3) Pour yourself a nice glass of wine. Since wine is made for sipping, it will fit nicely with your prep and cooking times.

4) Invite someone else to help you out. You can be the executive chef and someone else can be the sous chef.

5) Do some experimentation. Experiment on non-essential meal items if you can. Play with the spices, cooking time, method or just frankly make something different.

If cooking is a chore for you, try to make it less so.
