ThreadBare said:

So tweasure your pwosciutto...

FunkMistress said:

I do.

I cook...almost every night for me and boyfriend.

It was definitely how I got him...through his stomach. My sweet potato cheesecake sealed the deal. He was hooked after that.

KatSkrizzle said:

I have ALWAYS wanted to do a sweet potato cheesecake and have yet to learn . You betta work, Mama

Ottensen said:

I have been working on perfecting my recipe and I think it has been perfected.

....now I need to learn how to make banana pudding so I can get the ring!...

Not bad for a midwestern transplant livin in the South!

Ottensen said:

I'm sayin'! I'm going to have to run a lap or two, just reading about it...

FunkMistress said:

Ohh! LOVE a good frittata, can I come eat at YOUR house . I make those every couple of weeks for a fast breakfast...and sometimes will even just make a miniature one for myself when I don't want to share . I'm also quite partial to making other versions of that egg-based dish, in Germany it's more pancake-y with pancetta and sweet onions; from Spain I LOVE a good egg, potato & chorizo "tortilla". I learned a Japanese version that's more pancake-y than the the rest though, called "OKONOMIYAKI", and we serve it with a ponzu-based homemade sauce. I guess anything that remotely resembles a fluffy egg thingy, I'm HOOKED

KatSkrizzle said:

OK, you had me right up until Bananna Pudding .

I don't know WHAT it is, but I cannot stand Bananna Pudding...and this from a woman born of a Southern mother....I don't know what kinda cyanide laced stuff the women in my family used to put in those crystal bowls when they fed us, but I PROMISE you, I see bananna pudding to this day and RUN I adore you all here on this board, but I swear, if we ever dine together and you put bananna pudding in front of me on your dinner table... I am NOT eating it.

ThreadBare said:

If you had my cheesecake you wouldn't know what to do. You'd have to make me your "food girlfriend" Boyfriend's barber (he brought him a slice) checks for it every time he gets his haircut.

I'm working out the kinks on my regular cheesecake...it's just not wet enough. I think the next one I make will be the best one yet.

Note to self...get off the cheesecake and get the banana pudding recipe! HAve to get the ring!

didn't say that I don't cook. I just HATE it.

I DETEST cookin and I wish men would just get over it already. We are NOT your mamma's! Plus I'd rather spend my energy on all my other talents

SHOCKADELICA1 said:

We don't want you to be our mamas.

We'd just like you to cook sometimes, is all...

Cooking is like breathing to me.... I LOVE to cook! All types of foods as well, come to think of it I need new cookbooks.

Oh, and KatSkrizzle, I'll trade that sweet potato cheesecake recipe for my chocolate flan recipe...I got a decent banana pudding as well.

I can cook. I just choose not to most of the time.


The title of this thread cracks me up.

I do too! As long as I can buy it from Trader Joe's

I am seeing a young lady that is basically a fucking CHEF!!! Been cooking since age 12 and is a food channel addict!!

I LOVE IT!!!



Yes, the way to this man's heart is through my stomach....among other things!!

Some of the women on this thread are making me hungrier with every post. And hornier, funnily enough.

Lucky fucker!

Alright, I'm inspired after reading the frittata post - there was a spinach one @ TJ's that I LOVED!! Just cut off a slice & heated it every morning for breakfast, it was easy & quick, exactly what I needed. But they stopped selling it for some dumbass reason I never thought to make it myself But with staples like that, the stuff I like to have on-hand @ all times, I really need to just make it (like I do w/ Baba Ganoush since nobody in my neighborhood makes it to my liking! ).

Potatoes give it some weight, but I'll use them sparingly. I'm thinking sauteed mushrooms & eggplant, peppers, onions & parmesan or romano. Hopefully I'll be in the mood to do it Monday, there's another priority this weekend... but I'm is inspiiiiired Now I need an oven-safe skillet
