In all others, he falls woefully short of you. LynchSeattle – Yes, it sounds like you’re very similar to my father in that respect. In all others, he falls woefully short of you.

Far more difficult with ones who are not. Your household growing up sounds very...Pippi Longstocking. *laugh* I dig it. I wish I could have been a fly on the wall. -R.

Yesterday Bev and I got away to a cooking class where we went to the market with the chef and picked out all the ingredients. Then tasted everything individually (even down to the salt) and then started making a meal. It was wonderful. I have a feeling I'm like your Dad. I'm just happy as hell someone went through the effort to make food. Whenever Bev cooks (and she is amazing), it's always wonderful. It doesn't matter what it is. Cole always wants me to ask his Mom what's for dinner and I always tell him I don't care cuz I know it'll be great. I'm sure your dinner went well - I'm tearing through some blogs I didn't get to read earlier this week and I'm hoping to find out how it went! Your dinner sounds fun!

As you've said before, with enough good wine you can serve Subway and it's divine. We cook fairly low calorie, simple foods. With four kids it's more about being fast than anything else. When they are hungry they want to eat five minutes ago. We do quite a bit of whole wheat pasta with various sauces, lots of grilled chicken dishes, and resort to our diverse repertoire of salads and crunchy french bread at least twice a week. My children are not picky, they'll eat anything, they'll try anything...very adventurous eatters. As long as it's fast they'll be happy. If it's not raining we grill practically everything on the BBQ...veggies, meats, whatevah... if you can grill it we will. My parents are both HORRID cooks, we never had any kind of scheduled meal time...it was always sort of, fend for yourself in our free flowing no-rules household. Now that I'm an adult I love that we sit down each night together to eat and talk, and I adore hosting dinner parties for friends and big buffet style holiday get togethers. If feels so homey to me. Have a great time, and enjoy your monk fish. Sounds great…I’m sure it’ll be a fantastic hit and you’ll be a fab host.
