Quick Update

After 5+ years, I thought it was time to install a fresh WordPress and pull the content over.
I also installed a third party theme, since I think it’s time I realize I don’t have the inclination to tinker with that stuff outside of work anymore.

Grinding Dinner

Some months back, I decided to take on the responsibility of making dinner every single day, rather than sporadically.

Here are a few benefits I got (and get) from it:

  1. Anna (my wife) loves it
  2. I’ve learned how to cook to a much greater degree
  3. I can now cook stuff in quite relaxed manner (it never feels like a big task or chore anymore)
  4. I cook the food I like to eat
  5. We’re much more efficient with ingredients and shopping – we practically never throw food out anymore
  6. I feel great about contributing with this rather large task
I took did stint with a service (Aarstiderne) that sends recipes and their ingredients to your house once a week, which forced me out of my comfort zone for a few months, and I learned a bunch of new cooking techniques, uses of various spices and vegetables. It was a great mini-education.
