That sounds like the best kind of cooking, fun and relaxed. I'm in that in-between stage where I can do basic things without a recipe and can tell when things like chicken and onions are done but I do still need a recipe to at least glance over.

It's become more apparent how much I've learnt when I'm trying to teach the boy how to cook a particular meal. He asks a lot of questions as I do things instinctively. Which is good, but he's also a lot more precise than I am. He measures dashes of salt for example. Which will make him a great baker (his dough is much better than mine) but does make for some interesting moments.

Do you have a loose idea of things you want to make in the next few days?
