To say I can't cook is an understatement, my family laughs when I make a pot of top roman. I just don't have that knick that some moms have. BUT we aren't completely doomed! My husband knows how to work it in the kitchen! (Phew!) on one of our first dates he made me a delicious home cooked meal. I asked him where he got it and he told me it's just something he threw together. I was shocked! The way the celery salt on the shrimp mixed with the coconut rice and all the favors combined made me want to marry him and the food! So I did. ;) haha. Really though, it's so good! And then he adds asparagus to the side or sometimes mixed together. It's all so good.
