I've been out of culinary practice for a while now, so I was really glad that my friend Ms. Wunderful suggested that we cook up some arepas before heading to my neighbor's birthday party tonight. Even though we weren't successful in following the recipe to the letter, they came out pretty darn tasty if I do say so myself :)
Getting back in the culinary saddle also inspired me to do so more often. For the last couple months I've been lazy about making myself anything more than an egg or a banana & peanut butter smoothie, but I've got to change my ways -- both for my wallet and my health. I think I'm going to set out some sort of cooking challenge for myself. What do you think - could I feed myself breakfast, lunch and dinner this week for $20? That could be interesting. Given that my appetite has been almost nil since I returned from Guatemala (parasite??) I just might be able to pull it off...

$20 is a toughie, parasite or not! We had to do a week on $35 as part of our community nutrition class. Wasn't fun but def. do-able. Bonus--you get all the CSA veggies this week since I'm going out of town. Yay!
i believe a parasite would cause some discomfort also.
$20... maybe...if you have kraft mac & cheese every night. - 20 years ago you woulda' been thrilled with that!
Kraft M&C may be making a come back on my fav meals list ;) Extra veggies will give me a great headstart too! Perhaps I'll have to open it up to the $35 range. We'll see...
