Pick a country, find a recipe and just begin cooking! Newly remarried, my husband and I LOVE to take the morning to plan a menu, shop for the ingredients, then spend the day in the kitchen creating masterpieces. A good bottle of wine, jazz music turned up loud and dueling spoons and we are set. This is becoming a ritual as much as a tradition! Now my 13 year old daughter has joined into the fun (minus the wine, LOL!)
