I have been branching out when it comes to cooking. Last week, I made eggplant, it wasn't good at all, but we had never had eggplant, and decided to try it, even though trying something new can be scary and intimidating. I know some new tricks and may eventually try it again, but I need to taste one that is cooked well first, because I am thinking I just don't like it.
Tonight, I am making cooked cabbage, the only time I have had cabbage has been raw and in salad, and that was red cabbage. Matt wants sausage and cabbage, and although I may not eat it, I will make it and try it and let him have at it! Other things I will attempt to make soon are, lobster (that one may take me a while to get to), lamb, homemade pasta, bread from scratch and my own sauces.
I am always hesitant to try new things, whether it be cooking, driving, shopping, wearing, reading.... I always procrastinate in fear of not liking something. I am getting over my hesitation and starting to try lots of new things. This year, in general, will be the toughest one in my life so far, so I am attempting to make it less tough by filling it with new food to cook, new friends to hang out with, new books to read and new things like the wow group at church.
I will hopefully be updating soon that my cabbage turned out great!
