I enjoy cooking "creative" meals. Hubby likes cooking the "meat-and-potato" meals...and makes the most amazing soups (and he always makes enough to take over to our neighbours). Since we both enjoy everything each other cooks, it works well.

We try to incorporate as much healthy nutrition as possible into every meal. We use a lot of veggies, the more colourful the better.

My favourite time to cook is fall and winter too. My favourites are also the one-pot stews and chili - both are chock full of veggies and herbs. But my all-time favourite creation is my meatloaf. The recipe is based on my Dad's FAMOUS BBQ hamburger recipe (people used to come from miles around when they knew my Dad was making his BBQ hamburgers at the cottage!). We've spent years perfecting it (Dad never wrote it down and never told any of us the secret ingredient) and we think we're as close as we're ever going to get.
