COOKING!

I have this favourite recipe binder I am putting together.  I have have done this before and in some nefarious way it got over run with extraneous and not so favourite recipes.  Now I have started anew... title of the recipe book is "Dad's Recipe Book 2010 - No additions or deletions allowed".  Of course on a whim I can do what I want with it...I am the Dad.  It is good to have limited choice and this little book helps me make decisions.  I am thinking of Grant Schott's chicken cacciatore, likely my all time favourite recipe for a main course and Mom's pumpkin pie!

Marriage

As we start to show love in little things we feel more kindly towards each other.  Apologizing is a sign of strength and forgiveness isn't feeling and toilets are not self cleaning!  Two people do not become strangers overnight.  Choose wisely each day, turn towards her.

Ogden Nash's Secret of Marriage

To keep your marriage brimming,
With love in the wedding cup,
Whenever you're wrong, admit it;
Whenever you're right, shut up. 

Ogden Nash [1902-1971]
