Purely Functional

Here’s my page for week 6 regarding the kitchen prompt.

Oh how I struggled with this. This sat for a few weeks since I just couldn’t come up with a thing. Not a darn thing.

Life / family was different when I was a kid – I was alone a lot and made my own meals. I lived on Chef boy R dee (sp?), cereal, instant rice, carrot sticks….that kind of thing. I’ve never learned to cook and don’t really care. It strikes me as a lot of time, effort and mess for just food. With no kids and a hubby who agrees, it’s no big deal in our house. We eat a lot of salads, sandwiches, frozen stuff and go out. The kitchen is purely functional (although I do like the new counters we put in last year!!).

But, I do recognize the food=love equation and the value of comfort foods when you need them. So I journaled a bit about these points and called it a day. Not my fave page by a long shot, but I just couldn’t get into it. Fair enough.
