The Sizzle…


Ok – so the minute I heard the sizzle from my frying pan I knew I was back in business. Well, sort of. I just haven’t lit the oven yet.

Believe me, stovetop cooking is not all it’s cracked up to be. Try turning a Mexican gas burner down to low. It does not recognize low as a legitimate setting because absolutely everything will overcook. In fact, I’m learning how to cook all over again.

As my Yoga instructor told me today, breathe…just breathe. And so I do and continue to patiently await the ceremonial lighting of my oven on Thursday. It’s a finicky business that even I don’t have the guts to try on my own.

Got to love the simple things in life that are just a bit more complicated here.

Buen Apetito!
