My next try to put spices in, well I thought why not just surprise the DW and cook her dinner without spicing it my way, but hers. Yes, all I put on the loin chops were salt and pepper. They turned out all right, but for me there was nothing there, no flavor, no heat, just plain old tasteless pork. But you know of course she goes “oh these are good”, you only cooked them with salt and pepper. I was thinking were did you get your taste buds from? Were the chops good? Not in my book, they were juicy but flat could have put anything on there to give it some taste, anything please! I think what I am going to have to do is start cooking in two pans, one for her and one for me, get two small fry pans, but now I am going to have to have a bigger stove with more burners, like I will ever be able to talk her into that till we move. There are days when I just want to scream and go why you can not be normal and eat food with some taste. I have found two books The Spice Bible and The Herb and Spice Bible, they could help, if I had any idea what spice to try slip in on her. I found that I can do a jerk chicken, and she will eat that, because it reminds her of our trip in Jamaica, sometime things like that I can get by with, like Mexican food from the trip to Mexico, that would be Fajitas’ and refried beans but no rice and that would be it, no enchiladas’, she will do tacos as long as the are like Taco bells, there is so much that I want to try but have not figured out if it is going to be for one and if I did that then she would want some just so I would feel guilty for not fixing more. Yes life is wonderful. Till next time, hug some near you, they just may need it more than you know.
