Oh, bummer about your ankle! So sorry. David simply cannot cook things
that I like and I've given up trying to give instructions, as it puts him
off. When I hurt my back last Fall, more often than not I opted for things
like Marie Callendar's Pot Pies and some other frozen entrees, rather than
try having David cook. I have to admit, though, that he makes a great
lasagne. :-)
