yum!
Truth be told, I've cooked our dinner approximately 4 times in the three and a half years we've been together. Needless to say, it's a big deal when I actually plan to do this -which was what I set out to do yesterday. I even made a special trip to the grocery store to pick up our favorites: fresh salmon, green beans, and potatoes. I had intended to cook it all myself but what ended up happening was so much better. Alex and I cooked dinner together! I've discovered that, although I don't necessarily enjoy cooking alone, I love cooking with other people, especially my husband. It's actually fun! We didn't have any wine but we had a really great champagne. So we opened the bottle and drank yummy champagne as we cooked. Oh, and we ate dessert at this time too (before dinner!)- raspberry yogurt with coolwhip- yum! Alex bought me a beautiful (& fun!) pair of earrings and a dangly beaded bracelet. :) We had a "no computer" rule last night and enjoyed vegging in front of the tube, watching a couple favorites we'd dvr'd. It was really a great evening. Hope you all had a great time too! xo

What fun...I always enjoy when Aaron helps me out (especially with the barbeque) but lately I have been a little hooked on Food Network. Can I just say that I adore Rachael Ray. I have been cooking all kinds of things lately and for the most part the family enjoys eating it! :) I made a chocolate bundt cake with homemade icing and fresh strawberries. It was sooo pretty and yummy too! Thanks for sharing your evening with us!
sounds fantastic
and
now i'm craving green beans

me too! i always say i like cooking in theory because i love food and i love reading recipes. but actually cooking is a chore unless it´s a group project. :)

OOH I Love fresh "snap" green beans and red potatoes! I enjoy cooking and I guess for some I have the best of both world's. When my husband is in Oregon I "veg out". When he comes home and when I cook, my husband totally cleans the kitchen! To me that is the best part of cooking....I cook.....he cleans.
Blessings,
