When I started the cookbook a year ago, it was my husband and me on our low-cal, empty-nester diet routine and I had to go out and restock so many things. The kids would come to the house and say, "What? You don't even have ketchup anymore?" I'm actually looking forward to going back to the simpler way he and I ate before....but I couldn't manage dinners for a growing, active family that way or there would have been mass rebellion :)Karen Jones Gowenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01153821980625034810noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7852800943772489474.post-60840737682881681072013-04-12T07:32:18.117-07:002013-04-12T07:32:18.117-07:00Great list!
