Well, since I love to cook and that does take time, I 'cook for my freezer.'m That is a do big batches that I can freeze in appropriate portions. It doesn't take that much more time either. Then I can quilt while things are slow cooking, like soups and such. Later on, when quilting I can just take something out of the freezer and keep on quilting. I have to remind myself to eat, though.
I figure quilting is my mental health therapy and I don't have to leave home for appointments. Also, it is OK if I do it in bits and pieces of time. I just enjoy the process.
