Well, maybe I don't love to cook. Recently I have been spending a lot of time in the kitchen. I do love to bake, however, and have been going a little nuts lately. Calvin is loving it. I'm sure it's really helping our efforts to be healthy...Back to the subject of cooking, I have been really adventurous the past few weeks. (I use the term "adventurous" rather loosely). I'm trying all sorts of new recipes. I even found myself watching the food network.... I must confess that I am not the perfect little housewife that has a beautiful well balanced meal on the table at 6 every night. Honestly, I usually dread the idea of making dinner every night. In fact, sometimes on those days when I really don't feel like cooking, I get a little testy when Cal comes home and simply asks what's for dinner. (sorry Cal).
And then something happened. I suddenly enjoy cooking. Maybe I've finally come to a realization of how many meals I will be responsible for in the future (I might as well enjoy myself). I don't know. But whatever the cause, I'm gonna run with it!

Emily, I'm glad that you're finding more joy in cooking. Yes, it does take more effort to have good meals, but I get so much satisfaction out of making good meals for my family. Happy cooking! Let us know if you find a favorite recipe!
I love cooking too. Love it.
I have 3 books put out by America's Test Kitchens, and I LOVE them. Especially the 30 minute meals one. This book is now my official wedding gift for friends.
Wanna start a cooking club or something?
