It sounds delicious!!!!

Unfortunately, I'm not much of a cook. If it doesn't come in a can or can't be reheated in a microwave,, I stay away from it (smile)..

Did I mention I like eating out (big grin)..

I admire guys who can cook - that all sounds delicious , I wish I could cook but you really need great timing as a cook (as a drummer you would think I had lol ) if you don't then things get burnt, I would love that skill , my brother in law and nephew are both really great chefs , and I get to try our some great dishes -
