Home Cooking
Since I started living on my own, I used to buy cooked food, fast food, pizzas, chinese take outs. I don't cook because I'm on my own. But growing up I don't remember eating out. My mom cooks not everyday but maybe four times a week. We siblings help out like chopping, dicing cooking down to cleaning of fish and pots and pans. So I know how to cook some basic Filipino meals. A year ago, my best friend moved in with me and from then on my cooking/eating habits changed. She doesn't know how to cook but she knows how to grill meat. I, on the other hand doesn't know how to operate my own portable Weber grill. Because we both love the same food, i started cooking again. I will cook while she cuts everything. Now, not only she grills, she cooks too! I still can't grill but I can bake now. We dramatically reduced our food budget in half. Our only vice is pizza, but we only buy two slices at Costco and those are very rare occasions maybe just once a month. My BFF and I go to grocery store every two weeks for our bi-weekly food staples and we try to cook as much as we can the same day and then freeze them until we need them.
