What's for dinner at our home tonight? Well, it's holidays, and our son is preparing dinner for us - farm-fresh roast chicken and roast vegetables, followed by Banana Cake, custard and ice-Cream. My son has created the stuffing for the chicken all by himself, and the chicken is basted with oil and a little lemon juice. Oh, it smells so delightful, up here in the school room.
I challenged him this afternoon as to whether he is going to take it up for a living, but he said, "No, I'm too slow, and I don't work well under pressure." I think that he's done an excellent job, but as they say, the proof of the pudding is in the eating, or as in this case, the Roast Chicken and the Banana Cake. Praise God for willing helpers, and that our son loves cooking!

we had roast chicken tonight too. I made a potato salad and we cut up tomatoes and cucumbers from our garden to go with it.
Hi Therese,
It makes such an inexpensive meal for us, as we don't have to pay for the chicken in the first place. :)
Your salad sounds delicious.
Have a great week,

We had Suliman's Pilaf with lamb and pine nuts. It was pretty good as well, but I had to cook it...

Hi Jeanne,
Our son is becoming rather a good cook. We have told him that we are going to inform his wife, before they get married, of his culinary abilities. :)
Have a great week,

Hi Jillian
My son and daughter loved to cook growing up and now they are both in hospitality. Son 20yrs in a pizza restaurant and daughter 17yrs at McDonalds (full time, permanent). Can I encourage everyone to teach their boys and girls to cook. It seems to be a dying art.
Kylie :-)
Hi Kylie,
It sounds as if you did an excellent job of teaching your children to cook, and to enjoy cooking. :)
I think that it's so important to teach our children life skills, not just the book work that they need to know, so like you, we do lots of cooking.
Have a great week,
Blessings,
Jillian
