Food, Glorious Food!

My husband seriously spoils me. He's an excellent and creative cook, and he genuinely likes figuring out new dishes. When I was younger, I liked to bake...and I still like to make muffins, cupcakes, pies, etc. However, real food is much more different. I get hungry, yes. But I don't want to do the work to actually make stuff. Hence, while in grad school I would just heat up frozen pizzas and other simple dishes.


Now, though, Adam and I plan out menus and we cook together. I'm only Adam's sous chef...I'm good at cutting vegetables and the simple tasks, but he does all the complicated boiling, frying, baking stuff. And I just LOVE that my hubby puts so much time and energy into cooking for us. I'm eating healthy for the first time in my adult life, and I'm actually eating three square meals. (Which, for anyone who knows me, is a miracle. I'm the queen of skipping breakfast and saying that Cheetos+Hostess cupcakes does a meal make.) I'm so lucky to have my husband. Here's a picture of him being an awesome chef!!




So, as a tribute to him (and to make everyone so hungry that you just HAVE to plan a visit to the Copelands soon!!), here are some of the fantastic meals that we have gobbled down.


Some yummy homemade guacamole dip, and taco salads are in the green bowls!


Here's an upclose picture of some of our stuffed tacos.

Here's a BLAT (bacon/lettuce/avocado/tomato sandwich). Serious yum!!

The biggest problem is that I always forget to take pictures because I'm too excited to chow down! I promise to post more pics of delicious food asap!
