A Funny Quirk About The Man I Sleep With

I know three people who have already stopped reading...

Josh is a food snob. It's not with mean spiritness that I say so, it's just the darn truth. He truly married the wrong woman in regard to this Food Affair, since his mom cooks from scratch and I cook from a box (or bag). My mom doesn't cook, my grandmother didn't cook - and as you can see, it's clearly not my fault. Over our almost six years together, I have tucked a few recipes into my apron, but I would say for sure that cooking is just not my thing. I don't have a passion for it.
Josh
belongs at Le Cordon Bleu and I would give just about anything for him to forget pianos and take up dutch ovens. Yesterday, I was making out the shopping list and I asked Josh what he wanted for dinner this week. He said I could pick up some penne (we are waaaayy past spaghetti) and some ingredients for a red sauce. Not spaghetti sauce, not marinara... red sauce. Tonight he made very delicious pasta and when I came downstairs to eat, here it was:


I took the picture mostly because the bread caught my eye:

"I took a picture of your pinwheel."
"Presentation is everything."

Yep, we're first class over here.

I totally didn't stop reading after the title ... but could we play a little game and guess who did? By the way ... do you need a bottle top for your leftover wine?

OK, I accepted your challenge.
Nice bread pinwheel and red sauce, Josh. Did the healthy green leafy vegetables get cut out of the picture, or had you already eaten them?? ;)

Why did I not even notice the title til I read the comments? I think Josh is trying to tell you something...I think he wants to cook dinner EVERY night!

Speaking as a fellow food snob, there is nothing wrong with enjoying cooking and eating fine food! That food looks wonderful. I agree w/ Jen, let him cook every night!
