About 25 years ago, we started vacationing for one or two weeks in timeshares with modern kitchens. We would eat out a couple of times a week, but eat in the rest of the time. Aloma never complained about cooking, but I realized this was certainly no vacation for her. I offered to do the shopping and meal preparation while we were on vacation. I didn’t have to offer twice.
I went shopping at least every other day, getting up early, visiting a WalMart, getting back to our condo by 8:00 a.m. I enjoyed it. Meals were simple. Most condos had gas grills so I would cook burgers, hot dogs, chicken and pork chops. Inside I would cook omelets, BLTs and meatloaf or Tacos. No problem.
This year was different, vacationing for two months. I still enjoyed the shopping early in the morning, but after two weeks, I couldn’t think of what to prepare. The hardest part was to establish a menu. We had a gas grill in the garage, but it was difficult to move out to the driveway so I didn’t feel like cooking out as much as we did at home. Aloma didn’t want beef very often, so I didn’t have a clue what meals to offer. But we got through 10 weeks of my cooking.
Neither of lost any weight.
