Do any of you like to get in the kitchen and cook just to ease stress? Cooking as therapy?
Well today I'm engaging in some serious cooking therapy and also crossing off something I wanted to take care of.
I'm currently cooking lasagna- making extra for a friend who is about to have a baby to stick in their fridge to eat during the craziness of the firt few weeks/months of having a new baby!
Just finished the meat sauce and have the pasta ready for boiling! The meat sauce is simmering on the stove right now and smells great (can't beat the smell of fresh herbs, garlic, onion and tomato!)
Now I have to go grate all the cheese and make the filling mixture!
About a month ago I made a comfort homemade blackberry cobbler - first time to make my own cobbler "crust." It was great!
So what do you like to cook as "comfort cooking?"
