Blog Prompt: Describe your cooking skills as a newlywed. If you're not yet married, describe your cooking skills when you first moved out on your own.
First of all, let me start by saying it is not MY fault!! I was spoiled growing up and then my hubby spoiled me when we got married so I'm still spoiled.
On our first date, I invited future hubby for dinner, never thinking he would accept. It was a Sunday and the blue laws were strictly enforced in the south back then. Once he accepted, I realized I was in trouble but I was so smitten I didn't tell him I didn't have any food or drink in the apartment. When we got to my apartment I fixed him a boil-in-bag lasagna (drop bag in boiling water for 5 min.)This meal served one person and I had one beer in the refrigerator. We shared the meal but I was so in love, I didn't taste a bit. I don't know why he didn't run away but he came back for another date. When we got married I didn't know how to cook any better so Don did most of the cooking. He loved to cook and dirtied about every pot in the kitchen. I knew how to make some dishes but he complained that I cooked "yankee" and he ate "southern". So, for the past 24 years we have eaten out more than we've ever cooked at home.

what a romantic story! Scrap it!!
And I'm not going to laugh - I need a Don of my own to cook for me!!
Great story!! Some days I wish I never learned to cook...life would be much easier...LOL!
Love the story, Pat!! It makes me think of the spaghetti scene in Lady and the Tramp--sharing a meal and being in love...what a wonderful combination!
what a guy!!! Must have been true love - I know some men who specifically searched out the girls who would fill their tummy. (I was never one of those!)
THAT IS GREAT!!!! TRUE LOVE!! I cracked up when I read that for 24 years you've eaten out more than in!!! There's hope for me!!
I think I'm on my way to your last 24 years of eating out. ;)
