"I have to admit to you that when Sharon told me she was going to make a
meal for me that would curl my toes, I was thrilled. Sharon is a great cook
who rarely has muchtime. When she told me that the main course was
strawberry pasta, I was totally disappointed. I am a proud meat and
potatoes kind of guy after all and strawberry pasta just sounded
so=85so=85wimpy. But I kept all of this to myself thank the culinary
gods. Because that night Sharon found a way to make strawberries, cream,
and noodles taste like ambrosia. She also found a way to curl my toes. I
think my meat and potato days are over." Jeremy on dining with his culinary
goddess, friends 3 years, Biblically involved 4 months, Nacogdoches, TX
