Sad but true....!!!
If push comes to shove and I have more than one day off then I have been drawn in to preparing dinner for friends...but these culinary soirees take on the mantle of a major military manouevre...choosing the recipes, writing the ingredients list, shopping, preparing etc...Unfortunately I am not one of those people who throws open the fridge and/or cupboard and immediately puts together a three course meal of a nice salad, a great pasta dish and a delicate little something for dessert. The reason I don't/can't/won't do this is probably down to the fact that my fridge/cupboard only ever contains a number of different cat foods, some packet noodles, baked beans, bread, Heinz tomato soup and marmalade.
Yesterday, when I got home I caught the last few minutes of Click Online one of the sites they were highlighting was Cooking by numbers...actually, a pretty good idea...you click what's in your cupboard or fridge and it comes up with what you can serve - unfortunately my available items produced beans on toast and a baked bean sandwich - nothing I couldn't have worked out for myself!
I would like to add in my defence...I can make good cheese and bacon muffins, an excellent creme brulee and a passable attempt at pear and port crumble! However, beans on toast are definetly my strong point!!
