Yay- thanks for doing this. This was so fun for me to read and reminisce. I was a little shocked though when I read you don't like to cook. I remember you being a fabulous cook... and I thought you liked it. Maybe now that you have to do it so much its not so fun... I certainly know how that goes:)
