Blog 5 - the first cooking challenge!


Last night I managed to cook my first meal from scratch - CHALLENGE 35 - a chilli con carne (quorn and a meat version). I managed to cook it without too many traumas through the tears from the onions, although I did almost have a minor catastrophe when I tried to drain off the excess fat from the mince and almost tipped the whole lot in the sink!. Disaster averted, I was very proud of myself until I saw the faces of my two children and husband when they tried it! I must admit it wasn’t the best and was pretty bland with very little flavour but hey for a first attempt at least< I was proud and  it wasn't burnt! The family can't wait till my next attempt... NOT!
Onto the next challenge, I thought I would try and do some random acts of kindness to strangers (CHALLENGE 28) for the next couple of weeks and hopefully cheer some people up!
