Cooking Dinner.... Together

Adam and I rarely cook dinner together.  Maybe because he does not know how to cook, I don't have the patience to teach him (Hey, I taught myself!), I sort of hate cooking dinner with other people, and the kitchen is my special place.   Maybe a combination of all of that, but mostly the reasons that start with "I."

As a result of not cooking dinner together and Adam not really cooking, if I don't cook, no one cooks, and I get cranky.  I get angry, and I eat shitty food.  Fast forward four and a half years later and somewhat consistently arguing about this, we cooked dinner together tonight.  This is a rare occasion.

We had sauteed salmon with a vegetable medley (corn, broccoli, onions and zucchini with a splash of teriyaki sauce) and plan on celebrating OUR accomplishment by buying snacks at our local grocery store.  Pepperidge Farm better be having a serious sale on cookies.

Tomorrow I will be going back to my special place, all by myself, to make Jamie Oliver's Simplest Chicken and Leek Stew.
