Love to eat what you've cooked just as much as what Jesse cooks. I always come home with snugger fitting clothing after having enjoyed whatever you both have whipped, sauted, roasted, or mixed up. We know we'll never go away hungry....a little cold, but never hungry!! Well done…..Aurora. Love to eat what you’ve cooked just as much as what Jesse cooks.

(I shan't even go near the silliness of dirtying up extra "serving dishes" ((what are those?)) for a meal for two.) Even easier: when my talented amateur sweetie cooks, he plates his own food, and says "Dinner is ready; it looks something like this!" So then I get to pick my own serving size, how much of the sauce I want on my rice, etc etc etc. And, with just two people, it's not even rude, because the only other diner is mere seconds later than the cook in sitting down to eat. Plus which, you don't have to clear so much of the daily accumulation of, you know, stuff, off the dining room table. (I'm not sure if that's good or bad, now that I type it.) on point # 5,

His favourite phrase was "Now let me give you a little tip..." It was easier to just hand whatever it was over and go do something else. My Dad was a chef.
