Recipes

Once you see all ingredients and time involved it's overwhelming; but I still can't get it out of my mind.  Saw it on Milk Street, Semonlina Sesame Cake.  No ingredients I have in my cupboard and takes four hours to prepare.

Forget it.  It would be out of my mind very fast.

If I want to try something I do.  It's fun.

At one time in my life I would have invested the time; used to love trying new and different.  Now shopping for the ingredients (if I could even find them) and spending four hours preparing it just is too much at my age.

If a recipe has more than a few ingredients or takes tons of time I'm most likely not going to try it. If it requires odd ingredients I'm definely not going to try it.

If it takes longer to make than it takes to eat, forget it!!  And if there are more than 5 or 6 ingredients, forget it!!  Obviously, I'm not a cook--LOL!!!

As long as it meets my ingredients criteria, if I want to try a new recipe, I will.

Though I like to cook and try different recipes, if it's too involved I won't do it either.

If I get overwhelmed, at this point in my life, I will go out for dinner instead.
