With my family’s busy life, we often find it difficult to have fun together. Sometimes I feel that the only time we spend any quality time together is when we are eating dinner. My grandmother always said, “A family that eats together, stays together”. So the other day I decided to take that motto a step higher; a family that cooks together has fun together! Last week I tried something new and found that it was a great family bonding experience, Pollo alla cacciatora with mushrooms.
Last Friday I got this idea, it was about 4 in the afternoon and I had one hour until quitting time. I hate to admit it, but I was so tired and cringed at the thought of going home and having to slave over the stove to put dinner on the table. I know countless times in the past I’ve suggested that someone help me cook and every time I was turned down. “I have homework…” “I’m watching TV…” “Let’s get fast food” or the infamous “I don’t know how to cook…” The excuses are endless.
I thought to myself, “How can I make cooking seem fun to my family?” Suddenly, it came to me. I thought that everyone might be more excited to help cook if they knew that the final results would be something they love.
