A moment I spent alone doing something I enjoyed.
Today I spent an entire hour by myself doing something i really love... cooking! This was the very first time this year that I actually got to cook my own meal. The exhilaration and anticipation of the overall result of your cooking is mind-numbing! Not to mention all the anomalous feeling of a new dish you just whipped up.
I was cooking my own lunch today, not because it was a special day, but because my Mom went out shopping. This left me at home with no mom, no dad and no brothers! This was the best opportunity for me to test out my culinary skills.
The flame sparked to life and the water boiled a baleful temperature of 100 degrees Celsius. Down went the salt and the water furiously bubbled in reply. My dry organic spaghetti turned limp as I turned the heat up and added other ingredients to my mixture of mouthwatering spaghetti. After draining of the water and adding the sauce together with the other heavenly ingredients and the final touches, I stood there admiring my master piece. This sporadic occasion has left me with a scrumptious and alluring meal at my disposal. I gave in to the immense temptation and sat down to enjoy my exquisite lunch.
After slurping up the last strand of my delectable spaghetti, the door opened commodiously for my father to walk through. He started sniff around the house and then strolled into the kitchen, with a sprightly smile that ever so gently touched his ears and his pleading doggy eyes, he started licking the remaining contents of spaghetti in the pot with his fingers and smiled a satisfied grin.
Now my father is literally begging for more at dinner tonight and the recipe I got from a cooking lesson on youtube. Of all the fun of cooking, the most fun part is seeing the appeased look on the faces of the people you cook for and watching them crawl back for more.
P.S. If you want to know my recipe, I will post it at the bottom of this astounding post. Thanks for taking your time to read my personal account of the day and enjoy the rest of your day!
