Because of this challenging time, today I am honoring my husband with simplicity. He typically prefers simple meals. I am the one who likes to always dress things up and go all out with my cooking and presentation. Today and probably for the next week or so I am honoring my husband with simplicity in the kitchen. The timing could not be any better, the warm weather allows for ease of cooking on the grill, which always tastes good. Today was a simple chicken salad and soup, tomorrow will bring something just as quick, easy and in the grand scheme of things simple yet tasty. I'm not sure what is going on or maybe God is trying to send me a message, whatever it is, I hope I get it sooner rather than later.
I thought by being more intentionally focused on healthy meals it would bring some ease to the situation, but I think it may have escalated it instead of bringing it to a simmer. I am still committed to ensuring I am intentional about our meals to honor God and our bodies by what goes in them, and I do want it to taste good. I also want to please my husband, so this has been quite the downer for me and I'm seeking all the help and advice I can get; including calling on the name of Jesus.
Wives of the world, how do you handle it when your culinary skills are not what they used to be? What are some of the easy meals you prepare that are easy, simple yet tasty? I have a baker's rack filled with cookbooks; time to search through the one that says Quick Healthy and Delicious Cooking. Maybe that's what I'm missing; someone else's creative thinking in the kitchen. Please share your stories with us; this wife can use some help.
Blessings,
Rochelle
