"How many of our Christmas memories are centered around the delightful traditional foods prepared, as they were in the old days, with love and care and the haunting mystical quality of hundreds of years of authenticity?"

I couldn't agree more. I cook from scratch most nights, although I live alone. I love to cook, I love to eat. Buying a microwave meal to me is like saying to a Mudcatter "why make music when you can buy a Cd and listen to it without any effort?"

I sing as I cook, two of the great joys of the world. And if I can find someone to share my food, or enjoy my singing, my joy knows no bounds.
