I am married to a beautiful woman, and we both love to cook. However, we both hate the clean up after the cooking. We have a lot of fun cooking together. Some of our most enjoyable conversations are dealing with her trying to figure out what I added into the meal and telling me to stick to the recipe. I love her so much. Dessert, but I don't get to often. We really enjoy slow-cooker recipes. Since we are both full-time workers, and I'm also a full-time graduate student, the ease of slow-cooking has saved us from eating cereal every night. Slow-cooking recipes, casseroles, and Mexican food generally comprise our main eating habits due to time. We like to take a recipe and figure out ways to cut back on fat and calories while increasing the flavor and making it our own. I love it when everyone is in the kitchen altogether and helping prepare a meal. I worked as a summer camp cook in the summer of 2004 in Colorado. I did a lot of main dishes, but found my specialty to be dessert. I came up with a delectable peanut butter chocolate cake that always got rave reviews. My wife would agree with this one. Vanilla extract, even the smallest dose, does not taste good in tea.
