Exactly! Alton Brown is the host of that show ‘Good Eats’ I was talking about. Seriously does make you wanna’ get in the kitchen. Haha!

Haha! Maybe, but like you said, works for me. Good Eats is the one to watch that might get you in the kitchen, but if you were to watch one of those competitions, you probably would just get a watery mouth for some sweets. That’s what they’re competitions about half of the time. Magnificent castles made of nothing but chocolate, sugar, and candies of all sorts… Mmmm… mmm… mmmmm…

TheB0y: Have you met me? Great try, but I’m still not sold. I’d rather watch someone have the orgasmic experience you described and then eat what they made. Simple.

Stakerized: You’re quite the thinker. My health is super important. And you just got bonus points (fyi…they have no value) for knowing that. So back to square one. No cooking. Cheers to good health. *clink*

Summer: Have I got the deal for you? I actually love to clean the kitchen. I’d say do dishes, but I have a dishwasher that does that. I don’t mean a person who washes my dishes but an actual machine. Anyhow, you cook and I clean. And we don’t even have to get married. Deal?

Heatherp: Okay, that actually sounds fun. Want to know why? The wine part. You know how to sell an idea!

Katy: Great idea. But you’re an online friend, he’s married and I don’t roll that way. Oh, wait, you meant find someone who cooks versus offering up your husband. Starting the search, but in the meantime…out to dinner I go.

Misty: I like your idea. Maybe I need to put an ad on my blog for a chef (who will work for wine) search. Good thinking.

Erin: You crack me up. But I get what you’re hinting at. Sure you can come over to my house and make minestrone. I have plenty of wine we can drink. It’ll be fun. But no howling please.

MooKooJoe: I think those shows would just make me hungry. It’s like watching aerobics/yoga/pilates on TV when you don’t want to work out. Of course, it worked for you. We’ll see.

Watching Nigella Lawson, cooking can be a very sensual experience.
But didn’t you say cooking irritated your asthma?

Want to be cautious of that.

I used to cook in my previous life (when I was married). I was Suzy-fucking-homemaker. Every night I would have dinner ready around 6:30. I liked it because I had a rule that if I cooked he had to clean up the dinner mess. But you know what? Right now in my new life, I’ll take doing dishes over cooking any day – and I HATE doing dishes.

I love to take cooking classes at Sur La Table.
It is a smashing way to learn how to cook new things, in a social setting, which always makes things more fun.(Or bearable, depending on who you are. Tomato/ Tomahto.)
Bring a friend or cook with strangers, you pick. Either way, the evening ends by noshing on your creations, paired with the perfect wine.
More good news: You can claim to have made something fancy at least one time in your life. No one has to know it was under culinary supervision.

Bon Appetit!

I hate cooking with every cell in my body. Good thing husband likes to cook. That’s my suggestion, be with someone who likes to cook so you won’t have to. That or take out.

Alton Brown is my hero. He explains the why and how of things, and that makes cooking so much better! That said, if you don’t love to cook, just find someone who does, and make them do it! You supply the wine – that’s a fair trade!
