? When I was a child, I always thought that other people's food was better, and even thought that the food in my parents' canteen was particularly fragrant. Facing the four seasons, I will be more heartless and eager to grow up faster, and I can live independently whenever I want.
? Finally, it's time to leave home to study or work. In the face of three meals, I find that take-out will be boring, cooking will be troublesome, dinner will never become a daily routine, and my heart may be empty after the banquet is over. Facing the four seasons, their desire to live independently has come true, but not necessarily according to their own wishes. They begin to miss their holidays and go home to visit their aging parents.
Now, three meals are different again.
? For me, cooking is no longer a hassle, but a powerful tool for me to raise fat children, honor my parents and pull back the other half of my stomach poisoned by take-away food in the canteen. Even when I am alone, I will carefully prepare a meal for myself. From the cooking process to every bite of food I taste, it has become a medium for me to communicate with myself. Because the three meals are mixed with parents' parenting experience, children's spoil and the other half's heart.
? Because in the three meals, I recorded the meeting and separation, and I integrated into my own growth and maturity. Three meals, bearing the parents' daily necessities, also reflect some beautiful moments and chicken feathers. All these pictures, sounds, tastes and feelings are woven into vivid seasons and years.
? It seems particularly difficult to start the year in 2020 and 2022, and the epidemic has prevented many people from returning to work and starting school. These two times, I stayed at home for almost a month, working at home and taking care of the baby's daily life. In the face of the epidemic, we have to face three meals at home every day. From 2020 to 2022, this change is also very happy and interesting.
? In the case of normal commuting, for most families, only dinner among three meals a day can be used for family gatherings and chats. But the pace in Shenzhen is extremely fast, and it is very unfriendly to children who eat slowly. Since my maid can eat normally, almost every meal has been completed in our urging, cursing, threatening and conniving. Therefore, although the child is born with keen taste buds, she seldom enjoys the pleasure of tasting food. Over time, she also regarded eating as an arduous task. Children who can't eat are naturally hard to gain weight. So we tried one by one, from physiology to psychology, from probiotics to burying beans in ear points, but we couldn't figure it out.
? It was not until these two epidemics that I had the opportunity to accompany my girl. Three meals a day were different, but the color, taste, taste and quantity were slightly matched. I was pleasantly surprised to see that my girl started every meal with "Wow, enjoy it", then kept eating and said "Mmm-hmm, delicious", and then patted my bulging belly before the CD and said "full". It turns out that eating slowly is because the process of eating is not enjoyable and eating becomes a burden.
? In my opinion, for three meals a day, the chef should not only know the natural color, smell and attributes of the ingredients, but also know the attributes of his family. The rest is the arrangement and combination. Of course, there are differences in cooking, but as far as home cooking is concerned, the so-called mother flavor, I understand more about the process when the chef cooks.
? As far as the experience of being isolated at home for two years during the epidemic is concerned, when I take cooking as a task, most of my heart is filled with other things, and I am anxious to do something else after eating, and the taste of this meal is usually mediocre. And when I enjoy the process of preparing meals, the food served on the table will look and taste better.
? So, can it be said that all three meals are lively and fragrant, which is a reflection of the chef's current state, and whether the atmosphere of the three meals is pleasant or not is the epitome of the whole family life.
? From this perspective, starting with three meals a day and enjoying every meal cooked for your family is actually the happiness you have now. After all, they will leave you one day.
? Preparing and tasting every meal with your heart is the exchange of heart and ingredients. After all, everything is animistic, and every bite of food has to go through many fates to meet us once, and there will never be a second time.
? Face the person who enjoys three meals and four seasons with you calmly and with a smile. This is a quiet moment.
