So I never used to enjoy cooking. I mean NEVER. Especially cooking for people! PeOR! But since I've gotten married I've really begun to enjoy cooking. Over time of course. Chase cooked for like the first year of marriage which I think helped me have a desire to even start cooking. Chase has never expected me to be a house wife. To be the one who does all of the cooking or the one who cleans everything, he has been involved in every aspect of housework. I mean like I mentioned before, he was the one who did all of the cooking when we first got married! Once I graduated I started feeling really domestic. I got a sewing machine for christmas so I started to sew, I planted a garden, started making weekly bread, I would have dinners ready for Chase when he got home from school, I sent him with lunch, made breakfast, cleaned the house, went on runs, worked on crafts, and I LOVED it! It surprised me but that I was actually enjoying myself but I was! I really was! Sadly, that only lasted 2 weeks at most until I started working and became too busy to do anything that I had been enjoying doing. It's probably a good thing because who knows how long I could have enjoyed staying home alone. It is always exciting when I can engage in those domestic activities every once in awhile. Tonight I impressed myself with making some bomb cilantro lime rice with Naan and humus. Um... can I say it was amazing?! I always know when it's a success because Chase will dish up for a second helping :). I don't know what it will be like when I have kids and when I stay at home but I'm guessing I won't have time/energy to engage in all of the activities all at once like I was once able to do for those two weeks. I'm glad I had the experience and I'm glad that the homemaker in me finally decided to come out and show itself. I guess only time will tell about whether or not this domestic spark will last, I kind of hope it does.
