Today's dinner

For the first time in my life, I live by myself from January.

Since 3 years ago, My husband has been lived in Tokyo because of his work, 6 years ago my first daughter left my house because of her marriage. My only son also left house because of his marriage last month. My second daughter had no necessary to leave here, but because of my family motto ( children should be independent at the age of 30 ), she lives in an apartment near my house.

As their parents, this situation should be pleased, as they are grown to be live by themselves. But sometimes I feel a sense of remorse that to let my second daughter live herself is too early. She does not find her partner and have firm work.  But my house is very near from her apartment, and if she needs my help I can go  anytime. So it has no problem for the moment. She will come to my house to eat this dinner.
 Anyhow, I should pay attention about her from now on to take care of her.

After they left my house, I found out that I do not like cook. To fulfill my duty as their mother, I offered various kind of dishes for them. But by nature I was very lazy and don't like shopping especially food or daily necessities. As a result, I do not go out as much as I can and manage to cook using the stock in fridge.

So, this is today's dinner, deep fried pork and sweet potato with vegetables. If my children enjoy dinner with me, I would make one more dish and soup and wine. For my health, I should think about my meal from now on. Also pay attention to control my weight.
