Well, what Gomez can do to any innocent item in the food chain defies description and is definitely outlawed by the Geneva Convention!I cook in self-defence! He is completely uninterested in food except as a fuel and I can spend four minutes, four hours or four days in the kitchen, it matters not one iota to him.....nor could he reliably tell the diference.Pity really,as it's one of the few things I do quite well. Heaven help me if I stain his pristine work surfaces though, he cleans like a demon!
