From 8:30 to 8:30. I am a second-year office worker who has become accustomed to spending more than half of my day at the office. When I was a student, I used to start my day healthily by eating breakfast prepared by my mom every day, but now I am too busy getting ready for work with my eyes half-closed. The mere thought of waking up early to eat breakfast feels awkward. I eat lunch, and even dinner, at the office! The really fortunate thing is that the company food is so delicious that I slap my forehead in amazement every time I eat it. Given this, I thought there was no need to eat tasteless meals with my terrible cooking skills, nor was there any need to go through the hassle of preparing them myself. As someone who majored in Food Engineering and works at a food company, my affection for cooking and food is close to zero. Two weeks ago, I went up to my parents' house in Seoul and ate a home-cooked meal prepared by my mom for the first time in a long while. One side dish my mom handed me to try was this tomato marinade. Well, this is delicious on its own, as a side dish, with bread, or even as a snack with drinks. Above all, the recipe is so simple it's almost embarrassing to call it cooking, but if you put in a little care and time, you can enjoy my favorite tomatoes even more. So, for this #OHouseChallenge, I bought seasonings and did some chopping to try making tomato marinade. Reflecting on the days I used to fill up on snacks and instant food, I decided to treat myself to a simple meal at least once this weekend. My cooking skills will surely improve if I keep at it little by little! #OHouse, making everyday life a little softer.
