The reason

Do you know why I will never be a size 3?  Do you know why I will never weigh 120 pounds?  Do you know why I was so overweight in high school?  Do you know why dieting is so hard?

Here is the reason...

I love to cook.

And when I say love, I really mean adore.  Some people might even go as far to say obsessed.  If that is what they think.... well, they are probably true.

When Ryan and I were dating, his father gave me a wonderful opportunity.  He let me cook for him every Tuesday night... on his dime.  That means I could buy whatever I wanted at the grocery store and he would pay for it.

And guess what?  We still have this little system going on and I look forward to it every week.

Would you like to hear some of the things I have made?  Of course you would....
