Looking back on some pictures of the dishes I cooked since this year and came to these few conclusions...
1. I'm really proud of myself for buckling up and cooking for the family since this year (prior to 2014, my mum-in law cooked for us mostly)
2. I'm grateful for hubby in pushing me on to cook and start me off with few recipes (ABC soup, lotus root soup, steam salted chicken)
3. I'm not a chef so some of the dishes might not look presentable but I'm proud to attempt cooking those dishes.
4. I'm a Chinese so there are dishes I cooked which are more geared towards Asian style with lots of braising and stir-frying methods.
5. I'm from Malaysia so there are dishes I cooked which are a mixture from other cultures here (spicy dishes normally)
6. I'd be lying if I tell you I don't feel hurt reading comments like 'The food looks gross' or 'Yuck!' or 'Ewww' or etc, but at the end of the day, when I see the dishes are all eaten cleaned (rarely any leftovers unless I cooked too much) that is more important.
7. I am happy knowing my family and kiddos are eating home-cooked foods that I cooked and did my very best.
