Family Time, part 1

Hello again! Today I’m going to start a mini series of posts about what Andrew and I enjoy doing as a family, so you can get an idea of what we are up to when I’m not posting. In this first post, I’m sharing how much we enjoy cooking together. Andrew and I cook together most nights (I’d be lying if I said all nights, but it really is most nights). It is just a blast in the kitchen when we are together—we are a great team. Whether we are cooking a meal from Hello Fresh, homemade pasta, bagel egg sandwiches for breakfast, pizza, or a new recipe we can’t help but love this time together. I think we enjoy cooking together because we both love to cook on our own as well. Our skills in the kitchen really compliment each other as well—I’m great at making homemade pasta while Andrew makes pizza look round and not like the shape of Ohio. We chat, chop, and cook while also giving Goldy vegetable snacks to see if he’ll actually eat anything besides meat and carbs. So far, Goldy consistently eats cucumbers, zucchini, and purple carrot skins. We love cooking delicious food for our friends and family too, like the saying from Penzy’s goes: Love people, cook them good food. One thing we are very excited about is cooking for and with our future child! It definitely won’t be the same but it will be even more amazing in it’s own way once we have a little one in the kitchen with us.

What do you like to do with your immediate family?
