Cooking in

We have had a house guest, Debbie, who is a photographer too. While she was here we were on the go constantly so we could photograph. There wasn't time for much cooking so we typically ate a comida, then something lighter in the evening after we finished working. It was great fun and in many ways like a photography workshop.

But my body was craving some home cooking. So tonight was finally time to cook in...a pork tenderloin marinated in soy, ginger and garlic, sauteed broccoli, creamy rice, corn and poblano casserole and sliced tomato with goat cheese and basil drizzled with a little olive oil and basamic vinegar. I also made a key lime pie. So far we haven't cut it but maybe before bed we will have a piece.

It was all so satisfying....not just the food but the act of preparing food. I start feeling very deprived after just two or three days of eating out. I just don't understand people who don't cook.
