Goal for the Day: Make Time for Cooking

The antithesis of the food below, we have
a beautiful strata of pancetta, imported cheeses
and fresh vegetables served with a lovely
Spring salad of spinach and fruits with blue cheese.

Putting aside our vacuum-sealed meats, we all should take a page from Arlene Francis’ book—not literally—and make time for cooking. A home-cooked meal is very often much healthier and more satisfying than anything you could buy in a restaurant. Not all of us are blessed with innate cooking skills, but we can learn.


So, these week, look up a few recipes for your favorite meals and give it a try. You might surprise yourself. And, there’s no better way to learn than to try.
