My wife needed/wanted cookware that could go from stovetop to oven, funny she mentioned that around Christmas last year. After research I purchased a small variety of All-Clad and found a couple cast-iron skillets at second hand shops. She was very pleased, and nearly a year later she will stop what she is doing in the kitchen and says 'You know, I really like these pans. Thank you.' Thanks for the advice guys.
Around the new year, my wife says I should try doing some of the cooking since she thinks I would enjoy it. You know, cooking has surprised me as a creative outlet; I had put my hobbies aside for financial reasons but since we need to eat this works out well. Bless her heart, only a couple times in the past year has she taken a bite and handed it back.
Oh, the first thing I made was Luca's lasagna; instant hit with the with my bride and she has had me make if for others. (When I said I was making lasagna and she didn't see a mess of cheeses she really doubted what was coming, but now it is her favorite.)
And with my involvement in the kitchen my wife will admit that she has become more competent and creative. This year is the first, and she admits this, that she has consistently cooked steak she really really likes - perfectly cooked and monster good taste. And I told her how, ha.
