Where do I begin....


I never liked cooking. My mother is amazing in the kitchen, so as a kid I just went about my business until dinner was ready. My college years were like everyone elses..cafeteria junkfood and Ramen noodles. Suzy and I dated for most of that time, and just like me, her mother did all the cooking. We were destined for a life of takeout!

But things happen for a reason. Suzy and I broke up. I met someone. Married with children. Although my ex is a very good cook... it was never meant to be. The final strain on our marriage came during the time I was unemployed. Fortunately for me, that period of being "Mr. Mom" showed me why Beverly Johnson was passionate about putting dinner on our table. Cooking for someone gives you purpose.

Suzy and I never lost touch. We have always been best friends. Having failed at marriage is a tough pill to swallow but we're reunited..AND IT FEELS SO GOOD! She never took up cooking, and lucky for her, she'll never have to.

This blog is about our life, our families, our friends, and yes... our meals! There will be recipes and pictures of what I make for her. So stay tuned for delicious updates!
