Tonight was the first night of said efforts. I even bypassed working out so I could head straight home after work and have dinner ready when Lucas got home from his workout at 6:45pm. How wife-like of me! This turkey cordon bleu recipe was relatively easy to cook up. It would have be easier if I could balance chopping veggies, boiling pasta, sauteing veggies, and mixing up the sauce. Hopefully one day I'll get the timing and organization thing down. It worked out though. Lucas walked in just as I was setting out the plates.
We enjoyed eating together at our dining table without the TV flashing in the background. Whether you have kids or are just a couple, it's so easy to not spend quality time together. By quality time, I mean no TV, no phones, no books. As I make an effort to cook more, I'm also making an effort to truly spend time with my husband. We are not just physically in the same room but also mentally.
