Jen: Thanks dear, you know I'll make it there one day. :)  Oh, I forgot 
to say I'm not entirely hopeless with food - I love to grill.  Now 
there's a perfect & quick way to make good food: just stick everything- 
including vegetables - on the grill.  Zucchini with olive oil & a 
little garlic on a gas grill is heavenly (not so good on charcoal).

Jen: I'm sure your way is the healthier option. <g>

Jen: Yes, that's it exactly, all that prep stuff. I think it's an art 
and people either have the gift or don't.  Yep, kindred spirits Carol! 
Maybe you'd like grill cooking too. :)
