I lost my job so now I'm Mr. Wife (no kids yet). I used to cook quite a bit when I was single, now I'm back into it for now. BBQ and grilling is my favorite, but I'll give just about anything a try. My heritage is mostly Swedish and so my favorite cooking traditions revolve around a Swedish style Christmas. Every new successful meal is a triumph for me right now. While visiting friends in Spain I made hamburgers for our hosts. Their garlic was much more potent than what I'm used to from our supermarkets. The burgers were way too strong but they loved them! At least we didn't have to wear mosquito repellent for the rest of the week!
