Thanks for the good wishes. I pl...Monica and Jenn,<br />Thanks for the good wishes. I planned to work many years more, but things came together and made it a good time for me to retire. I'm doing a lot of volunteer work, so I exaggerate when I say I can cook, bake, and blog every day. But I've become a big fan of retirement! Always thought there wouldn't be enough to do, and it turns out I'm busier than ever. (Although I sleep in every morning). :-)Mariehttp://weekendviands.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4643462473890837525.post-68205362910125415532010-11-18T07:18:10.496-08:002010-11-18T07:18:10.496-08:00Like Jenn, I also laughed out loud with Jim's ...Like Jenn, I also laughed out loud with Jim's comment about the "Bad cookbook". Slowly we will change is mind. With over 1000, I don't doubt there will be some that are not going to be proud pleasers. But, the stews are always a hit, glad you guys like it. I’m thinking the chicken wrap in pancetta will be a winner as well.<br /><br />Like you, I tend to over season as well - call it the Latin influence in me - I like everything to have a "Knick"!<br /><br />And congrats on the retirement as well... *sigh* wish I could have the whole day to bake, cook and blog. (That is why I just told Tom to don't forget to buy a lotto ticket!).
