Bon appetit!

As I mentioned earlier, I am a cook-in-the-making!
I have begun teaching myself the art of preparing food =)
It is so fun and fulfilling (haha)! It helps me relieve my stress and feel accomplished.

I just came upon a new cook book from my friend Blanca. It's called Four Ingredients. I just love it because it gives you really good recipes that look good and taste awesome that only require 4 ingredients! Amazing! And it's not like PB & J or a cheese crisp ;).

My favorite recipe is the one for Friday night (March 4th).
Curry Potato Soup
(and a coinciding recipe for a shrimp appetizer)

This recipe is special because it mixes Alan's favorite dishes! He just loves curry and even more SHRIMP! So I'm fixing it for our 2 month anniversary =)

I have also learned new tricks from my friend Blanca who is teaching me to cook. She had many years experience of being married and has taught me how to hide ingredients from our husbands in dinner! Brilliant!

you may ask..."Why is this brilliant?"

You see...Alan hates cilantro (my favorite). However, I learned that cooking cilantro makes the taste cook down so he cannot taste it so strong. So I got some! I'll let you know how it goes! ;)

Quotes from Daddy

So I was on the phone with my daddy...talkin about life and he shared more of his wise perspective with me.

"Marriage is an ocean of emotions mixed in with a sea of expenses"

Ha ha!! He is also the author of my blog name (All the Worlds's a ....)

More to come!

Side note: My mother just had her Gal Bladder removed and no one even told me! Slightly frustrating...
