This is too funny because I relate although I am your mother. I can't stand following a recipe and even if I do, I always end up changing something or I don't really measure. I think, "This looks like a tablespoon to me!" ha!

My husband likes the extravagant recipes that uses every dish in the kitchen and is often having some kind of fit over the process. He doesn't cook often. ;)

You have it made though with sitting back and reaping the benefits of both great cooks. Do you have to do all the dishes though?
