I am a working woman who would like more time to cook. My husband tells me that I have entirely too many cookbooks. You can't tell that from looking at him. He has gained about 40 pounds since we have been married - over 20 years now. My favorite things to cook are Holiday cooking. I really enjoy cooking for a large group of people. Thanksgiving! The whole turkey, casseroles, salad and dessert thing! When I mastered Pecan Pie. I made a Chocolate Souffle` for dessert once and my family (husband and two sons) did not like it while it was still warm but they loved it when it got cold!
