Not Eating Out in New York helps you eat in |
|
Filed under: East Coast, On the Blogs, How To, Real Kitchens  Looking to save a little money this holiday season? One way to do that is to curb your restaurant habit. However, so many of our social lives revolve around going out to eat with friends and so to eat in is to give up those opportunities to socialize and hang out. Luckily, Catharine of the food blog Not Eating Out in New York (we did a feature about her just over a year ago) has just posted some helpful tips about cooking at home, keeping it fun and making sure you still have a social life while you're doing it. Here are some of her suggestions.
- Buy fresh veggies often so that there's a "perishable presence" in your home that you've got to use.
- Read cooking sites or food blogs just as you're getting hungry to inspire yourself to feed that appetite
- Share your food with friends. You invite them over for dinner, chances are they'll return the favor and suddenly, you're hanging out and doing it outside a restaurant.
She's got lots more useful thoughts, but I don't want to be a spoiler, so I'll just stop there. She's certainly got me thinking about cooking at home more than I already do. Read | Permalink | Email this | Comments
