Dinner rush

I recently decided that I want to cook for people on a regular basis.

Whether that means becoming a personal chef, working in a restaurant or cooking at home for a nearby cafe (in addition, not instead of writing), I’m not sure.

But it does make me want to practice, practice, practice.

So I was pretty sure I was going to cook up a storm last night. Sundays are such good days to do it – there’s usually a little time to squeeze in extra shopping and prep if needed.

I got the shopping part done – huge fresh Whitefish Fillet and Ground Bison – but I took the opportunity to visit with my friend Camille over stove time.

After our visit, it was already 8:30 and Scott and I were pretty hungry, so my idea of fish stew went out the window and instead I did Breaded Whitefish with Homemade Tartar Sauce, Steamed Potatoes & Rapini with Onions and Garlic (pictured above).

It was fantastic.

We had a great, albeit simple dinner, and I got to spend time with a friend.

Sometimes it’s not how much time you spend in the kitchen, but how you spend the time you have.
