Cook ingredients that you are used to cooking by other techniques, such as fish, chicken, or hamburgers. In other words be comfortable with the ingredients you are using.

A Guest Blogger

Today will be special in that I'm planning on posting two entries today. In less than 2 hours I'm having a lower wisdom tooth extracted which means soft foods for me for a few days. I thought I would focus on that since I haven't seen any sites with these types of recipes. Oh sure I could toss everything into a blender but that wouldn't be much fun. So watch for the second posting later today.

I've posted over a hundred entries now! It doesn't seem possible especially since most of them have pictures and recipes. Since my blog started last April you have seen a change in the way I present pictures of my food. I've been playing with Adobe Photoshop CS for the past few months and learning animation. My goal is to enhance my blogs with pleasing photos.
