It has been cloudy and raining here last couple of days. Ugh!!
Yesterday, after I sent my son to school, picking up the stuff, vacuuming, dusting and finally got in my kitchen.
I saw the tomatoes on the counter. They were very ripe! Prepare them for cooking and roasted them(posted this recipe below)
I was listening Lite Fm.:) Music motivates me, love it! Actually I never turn the radio off. Even night time! Loovee listening to slow music while sleeping.
My hubby too!.
So I turned the volume up a bit end enjoyed cooking :)
It was so peaceful and relaxing.
Sometimes when I feel a need to do things away from the computer I head straight to the kitchen. Oh, there is always something to do in there..hehehe..
I spent my time out in my kitchen this week. What about you?
I can't even wait to read how the other moms spent their time out..
I would love to be in your kitchen Yonca! You could teach me so many things! LOL
ReplyDeleteI also love to listen to music, it is so relaxing. Cooking isn't a bad gig for me when I don't have to watch the kids while trying to prepare a meal. So glad you had
another successful time out girl!
I spend my free time right here...on the computer...catching up on my comments! I am not such a cook. When I am in the kitchen, I am usually getting a snack!
ReplyDeleteyou are so right about there always being something to do in the kitchen!! when i need some motivation, i'm all about the oldies!!
ReplyDeleteThat sounds relaxing, and yummy! I am a HUGE fan of tomatoes. My husband hates them. I think he is crazy, but whatever!
ReplyDeleteThat sounds like a great afternoon!
I would love to be cooking in the kitchen. Ok if I could make something edible that is. I wish I had learned to cook from scratch.
ReplyDeleteI spend my free time with my son and BF. We usually shop, go figure. LOL You can come into my kitchen at anytime. It's small but I love my kitchen it's perfect for me since I'm the only one who ever cooks. I sacraficed a small kitchen so the boys of my house could have their game room. Yeah i know i rock for that!!
ReplyDeleteWhen I feel the need to do things away from the computer, I run through the kitchen and out the garage door for a run! I wish I were more like you Yonca! The kitchen and I just don't get along so well :-)
ReplyDeleteYou I think cooking is such great therapy. When Jeff gets home from work I ask that he watch the kids while I cook and it feels so great! I love to cook.
ReplyDeleteHappy timeout thursday!

Yonca, I fully agree that cooking is a great therapy! The trouble is, there are usually far too many people coming in and out of my kitchen! But, I love to get stuck right in and cook something. Just now, I have made my Christmas Cake! We usually bake the cake a few months in advance so it can mature, then , just before Christmas, I love to decorate it!
ReplyDeleteIs the tradition of baking Christmas/Wedding cakes done this way in America?
I'd love to hear anyone else's views on making fruitcakes like this!
Cooking doesn't really relax me but baking does. What a nice way to spend your hour. :)
ReplyDeleteI prefer to eat out!!
ReplyDeleteAnd yes, I've stopped by at Theta Mom. I even advertised on her blog for Entre Card, all thanks to you!!
You're a great pal, Yonca!!
Howdy girl ^_^.
ReplyDeleteAs for me I don't know how to cook just yet sob ^_^. But I'm very good at researching and collecting recipes, 'tis my hobby. Maybe, someday I get to try to use my recipe collection hehe. ^_^
I totally agree with you, Yonca:) There is always something to do in the kitchen. Sounds like you did great in the kitchen today!
ReplyDeleteThat does sound relaxing. I turn on music when I am housecleaning.
ReplyDeletePopping in from MBC!
ReplyDeleteNow following your blog...
Yonca you are so right! There is always stuff to do in the kitchen!! I bet it always smells so good in your house with the smells of food always cooking. :) Congrats on your time out.
ReplyDeleteSounds great! :)
ReplyDeleteI love to cook too! It's one of the most relaxing things to do, I think. Have a great weekend and happy cooking!
ReplyDeleteRoasted tomatoes sound delish! My timeouts are spent working out, LOL. Can I punish my workout for making me work so hard?? LOL Actually, I spend a lot of my time on my computer because this is where I write and draw, which is my form of timeout or release.:)
ReplyDeleteI am missing your posts. I need a new recipe! LOL
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you got to take a "Time Out" in your kitchen. I think it's great that Theta Mom started this because it's so important to take some time just for you.
