As a twenty-something generation Y'er, who struggles with the day-to-day chore of feeding myself and my boyfriend, I've decided to start this blog about my experiences with cooking, food, and dining out for the young and inexperience generation Y crowd that typically doesn't know how to cook much.
With the cost of dining out becoming more and more expensive, I'm resigned to cooking for myself and my boyfriend and sometimes friends and family at least 5 times a week(on a good week). This can be a daunting task for GenY who(Warning: Stereotype) generally have a negative attitude towards family-life and the menial tasks of everyday life, like cooking for myself. To me cooking equates work. I want to work, but I do not want work to be my life.
Sure we could eat take-out and fast food every day, that requires little to no work, but but that gets expensive rather quickly. More and more of Generation Y are entering the work place and starting off in the real world with little or no support from their parents, eating out everyday is not only financial suicide its also health suicide.
As a proud member of Generation Y, I can say that I've had it relatively easy compared to other generations. I grew up with MTV, computers and the internet, we are a "instant gratification" group, growing up I got what I wanted when I wanted it. Now out on my own, I'm learning in my twenty's how to cook and fend for myself as are 70 million other Generation Y'ers. Join me in my quest for the answer to the age old question of "What's for dinner?"
