I'm now officially a senior and have only discovered the joy of cooking in the past decade. Works well for us as my wife was never inspired by cooking so she was glad to hand over the pans. For the most part I like to find healthy recipes and mind the fat and carb intake but every now and then a traditional recipe, especially Italian, will call me. Stir fried anything. I like to play with my food and watch it cook. Not too many that I wanted to keep as my dad was a meat and potatoes man, meat cooked till it was dry and vegies that would have been a credit to Gerber. Squash stuffed with onions and dates. My pasta sauces are consistently good and sometimes approach greatness (wife's rating) A seemingly never ending string of insipid soups. I know, not exactly a tragedy but it is the bane of my life in the kitchen.
