Naomi: Cooking for one and for friends



For years now, even before I wrote the recipes in what I think of as my "static blog," Fiftytworecipesfrommymother, at the request of my children, Sarah and Sam, Sarah had been urging me to keep a daily (more or less) record of my cookings--the meals I make for myself in my (surprisingly) solitary life as well as those I make for friends. For whatever reasons, I've never done it.


But, after months of wandering, I've finally begun. As I haven't quite mastered the art of cooking for one, and love throwing together grand meals at the last minute, I have been encouraging friends to call to check on what I might have on hand any evening for a quick meal. Instructions can be found in my entry for March 20th--What's in Naomi's Refrigerator.

This is primarily a record of the meals I prepare for myself and others, accompanied by "mug shots" of the food (when I remember to photograph before eating). Shot by my phone, with no styling, they may not capture their subjects at their best, but so be it.

May 4. Salad. Happy Hour Hamburger.

Somehow didn't get around to eating lunch until well after three-salad with eggs, tomato, bacon--I was thinking it might hold me through dinner, but when Linda suggested we meet for happy hours hamburgers at the M restaurant on her corner, it was an offer I couldn't refuse.  Turns out the salad was a mere appetizer for a bargain hamburger and fries which we happily ate at outside table.  Must be summer in southern California.
