I am learning to cook smaller servings.

Hello, dear friends. Among my very busy schedule these last 2 weeks I also received the visit from my grandson Diego. I had forgotten that we did not get along when I invited him to Aruba a few years ago. So I had to end up telling him to stay away from my house but not before he ate all the food I had and drank all the liquor I keep for visits. I´m more angry at myself than at him. I should have known. So now I´m cooking again food for one person and I have started doing some dishes that I hadn´t had for a long time. My last dish was a tomato sauce with the most delicious meat balls. Do you like meat balls? I mixed the meat with 2 eggs, bread crums and caramelized onion. I cooked the balls in a wonderful tomato sauce I had made. On Thursday evening, Dixie is coming to take me to her house. I´ll stay there overnight and then Humberto will drive us (Camila and me) to the airport. I hope I can walk some while I´m at Aruba. Good night, Sleep tight

I am sorry that Diego is so rude. I love meatballs. I have ground beef in the freezer. I must oblige myself to eat something.

Try to start little by little. Maybe a small dish in front of the TV can help. The first months are the worst. I still have to sleep with some music on.

@LadyDuck I´d love a heat wave here. We are freezing. And central heatings will never be within my budget. Gazpacho is a lovely cold soup for summer.

i've been wondering how you've been doing. It seems like I haven't talked with you in a long time. I hope you and Camila have a wonderful time in Aruba. The way you make meatballs is the way mom cooked meatloaf. Have a good night.

I love meatballs. I prefer them to a meatloaf now as I would not know what to do with so much meat.

@marguicha You could use the meatloaf as sandwiches for a week or two. Did I mention that I've missed talking with you?

I am sorry to read that Diego came again and ate and drank everything in sight. I think you may have to limit his visits! Hope you have a wonderful time in Aruba with Camila. Take a picture or two!

I think that I wwill just end his visits if he wants to visit again. I can invite him (after I have forgiven him) to eat at a restaurant. I don´t want him at my house. I don´t trust him.
