Cream of mushroom soup that I made last week.

I've been so lazy with cooking at home lately. Actually, now that I sit down and think about it, it's only been a week. The cream of mushroom soup in the picture was taken about a week ago. I made it because my dad was craving it. I'm not a big fan of cream soups. In fact, I don't like any cream or milk based dishes. When I do make this soup, I would only taste it to see if it tastes good and never touch it again. But my dad seems to love it, so I would make the soup once in a while.

To be honest, I think that's what makes it difficult for me to cook. My dad doesn't like the things I like, and vice versa. Only after seeing my dad eat ramen (instant noodles) twice this week, I realized that there really wasn't much to eat at home. I felt bad for my dad, so I forced myself to make some banchans (side dishes). I ended up making two soups as well - Beef based Moo-gook (radish soup) and my all time favourite Dwen-jang-jji-gae.

I should really be cooking more, especially for my dad while my mom is away. I'm thankful that I was motivated to finally cook!
