My dad lost his sense of taste several years ago and says the same thing. From that point forward, he’s eaten very little at a time, because it’s no longer something he enjoys, it’s just something he does because he has to.
I don’t know if it’s the same recipe or not, but they sell it around here at all the farm markets and Amish shops:

I've had a day in the kitchen today which no doubt I'll pay for (in back pain) tonight and tomorrow but tea is cooked for tomorrow and Wednesday at least.
I though the pumpkin corn bread needed a little extra something but it's the first time I've made it, so I'll know for next time but it worked well with the squash, leek & butter bean stew, a recipe from an old Irish vegetarian cookbook of ours picked up many years ago in a restaurant in Cork, Ireland. I do miss that restaurant....

I had half prepared a fairly simple meal then lost interest and ordered carry oot noodles (and pork wontons)!
Is your sense of taste coming back?

Chicken poke style.
That’d be a perfect Autumn meal here. Looks very good!

Yep, and given it's winter here it works well. The stew can use/uses 2 different squashes, though I only used the 1 because of waste.... I had 2 whole squashre, so only peeled one, so used 1.5kg of flesh for the stew and the remaining 250g for the 'bread'. Note to self, I now need for sunflower oil. I now need another recipe featuring squash to use up the other one...

Mrs. Next Door Neighbor asked if I would make a birthday cake for Mr. NDN and it was my choice, but wait, he does like chocolate.
I've decided on a Raspberry filled Chocolate Cake.
The cake & frosting recipe I make all the time from the side of the Hershey's Cocoa box but I wanted to jazz it up.
I read a bunch of recipes on line and mashed together my own version and I think it was a very good idea to make this ahead of time.
One recipe I read said to ensure that the filling is quite thick. Best to remove the seeds to intensify the flavor and leave it sit the the `fridge to really develop.
I think I got it. It's very thick and a nice flavor already. It's almost cooled completely and then I'll stash it away.
I think I'll also make the cake ahead and freeze it, so that's out of the way and I can take my time.
The big day isn't for a week and a half.
