Thanks to you both for your encouraging words. My family is usually very helpful, and hubby usually cooks on the 3 days per week that I'm working and he's home. Yesterday, he was just busy and lost track of the time, so I cooked, and he cleaned. My 12 year old son has to cook a full "hispanic culture" meal next week, and I'm supposed to help him and "grade" him on it. I'm going to postpone it a week or two so I can at least taste each thing he makes. I'm always helping him learn to cook, and he's GREAT at making raw nutloaf and prepping things for the dehydrator! He's gonna be a BIG help over the next few weeks!
