So, I'd been buying tomatoes lately, now that I got a new favorite dish, and...

The tomatoes in the supermarket are chilled but I've heard that Italians don't refrigerate tomatoes.

Do you* refrigerate โ„๏ธ your tomatoes? ๐Ÿ…

I just wipe the tomatoes dry (they're cool and a little wet when i buy them) and leave them on the kitchen counter, and try to cook them within a few days. So far so good. ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™€๏ธ

What say you?

I bought feta and tomato, thinking I'll just have it with a bit of olive oil and balsamic for a quick snack -- a less processed step away from my fave snack of crackers and store-bought cheese-in-oil-and-herbs.

Ended up searching the web for simple recipes and now the feta and tomatoes are a baked dinner. โšช๐Ÿง€๐Ÿ…๐Ÿง„๐Ÿบ๐ŸŒฟ๐Ÿ˜‹

Use more tomatoes and less feta next time. ๐Ÿคช

I was too lazy to chop garlic. So I just had some butter and parmesan cheese with my , plus a sprinkling of chili flakes.

I made dinner.

๐Ÿš Rice cooked on a stove, not in a rice cooker. (Thaaaaat's right! ๐Ÿ˜‰)
๐Ÿก Fried meatballs. (My mother's recipe, prepped by sis-in-law, frozen, ready for me to cook.)
๐ŸŒ And frozen popsicle-ish Cavendish banana.

Yummy. ๐Ÿ˜‹

The problem with cooking?
The cleanup. โ˜น๏ธ

For the very first time.
Ever.
I cooked rice in a pan,
not in a rice cooker.
Not bad for a first try.
Simple garlic parmesan risotto.
I should have more liquid next time. ๐Ÿค”

I cooked! โ˜๏ธ๐Ÿง‘โ€๐Ÿณ
Yes, I'm very pleased with myself.
