Cooking Smaller Meals

As time moves on and people eat differently, it's interesting to experiment with different foods, unusual ingredients and ways of cooking.

I know lots of people who find it just as cheap to eat out in small ethnic restaurants as to cook.

Many people - generally women, but not always, are simply tired of cooking. They have been doing it for thirty or forty years. It seems that just when couples get their trophy kitchen, they often stop cooking as much at home.

One thing I tend to forget and yet find useful is to cook double portions and freeze the rest. It's the same amount of work at the time, but half the work later. Good planning can help to give us more time.
