We have been married since December '06 and loving (almost) every minute of it. HA HA! Until I met my husband, I didn't cook much. He has helped my love for cooking to bloom! We belong to a bi-monthly cooking club which is lots of fun and a great way to meet new people. We also try to find fun dishes we can make together. Our city has a diverse population and we enjoy going to the many local ethnic markets for special ingredients. Plus it's just plain fun (and delicious) to see what people use all over the world in their food. pastas, chicken, casseroles, baking, marinades, sauces and fish dishes I'm Italian so Sunday pasta with my whole family is a must! cornish hens and a from scratch layer cake Let's not go there!
