Cooking - At Home!

I don't cook at home anymore. I try to eat nothing but fruit and vegetables before school everyday, because we eat a hell of a lot of rich, calorie and fat intense food at school.

After lectures and demos we cook, and then we eat each night around 6:45. I get home around 8:00 or 9:00, and I have absolutely no interest in food when I get home. J, who has been so supportive of this whole cooking school thing has barely had a decent home cooked meal since the semester started.

But it's Saturday today, and I didn't have to go anywhere or do anything today, so I decided to take it easy, enjoy the nice weather, and cook a real meal.

Tonight's Menu:

Oysters on the half shell (okay, no cooking there)
Steamed mussels in a white wine sauce with leeks and carrots
Baguette with Lemon Mayonnaise

and for dessert, raspberry frangipane tart.

I'll post the recipes sooner or later. For now it's enough to just be cooking in my own kitchen.
