KITCHEN LOVE STORY NI INDAY

I always make fun of asking my husband this question.

"Why you gladly put a wedding ring on my finger?"

His answer:

"It is because you always take time to cook no matter how busy you are."

ARRRGGGGHHHHHH!!!!

My husband sees me as a cook and a hard working INDAY inside the house. My husband is inlove with INDAY not with Jense.

Of course, my hubby will always deny it. This is our common joke inside the house.

However, there might be some realities behind this joke. Because no matter how busy and how tiring my days are, cooking our meal is always the top priority of my routine. Personally, I still bring my lunch box to work daily. My lunch box is always filled with the typical Filipino lunch of rice, main dish and some desserts. My co-workers hd stopped asking when I prepared them considering that I go to work really early. It seems that having a fully loaded lunch box daily is a miracle. For me, there is nothing extraordinary. It is a must part of task that I have to accomplish everyday. Meaning, it is a part of life that needs to be completed.

Where I got this mentality?

Its my mom's fault. I grew up with homemade foods and packing lunchboxes must be a part of morning responsibility. I was brainwashed that food must be healthy and the only way to be sure is to prepare it from our kitchen and veggies must be taken straight from our backyard garden.

Another reason; my husband got lots of prohibited food in his strict diet brought by faltering health and aging. Again health reasons. I dont want to be within another heallth mess so as long as I can help preventing it.Anyway, health is wealth. If I take care of our kitchen we can avoid some trips to the hospital and it is a big help in our financial savings.

I have to admit. I am a natural born INDAY despite of my towering professional ambitions. It is fun and I guess it balances the fulcrum. Sometimes, I am a bit convinced that my hubby loves INDAY not Jense. I dunno know..hahahaha.

Lastly,

I have to get back to the kitchen to finish the turkey.

Happy Thanksgiving to all.
