Well that puts my dinner to shame. :oops: Broccoli cheddar soup and grilled cheese on sourdough.
It looks like you are head cook there. You need to rub elbows with my DH , he could use some cooking lessons. His specialties are frozen pizza and popcorn.

mmmm, that looks SO GOOD! I love wonton soup. Saved the recipe, looks good!

@Carol Dee and @so lucky ... I'm not sure if it's any easier cooking for a guy who cooks a whole lot better the I do. I did impress him with a stir fry last night though, or he just said he was.:rolleyes:

I was already helping Mom with Thanksgiving meals and pumpkin pie when someone (it could have been her) said every man should know how to make an omelet.

Awhile later, there was that book with the title about "real men" not eating quiche. Well, that just made me mad ... once I figured out what quiche was ;).

So. I became a man who could make quiche!

I'm up for egg-drop soup and I've made raviolis and help DW with eggrolls, quite often. Wonton should be next, right @majorcatfish ?!
