Cooking
What's not to like? Potatoes, cream, smoked Gouda, mixed together with milk, garlic, thyme, sea salt & pepper. Baked till potatoes are tender.
With a recipe as easy as this, and a final product so good it practically melts in your mouth, unless you're lactose-intolerant, there is no excuse for not making it.

Yesterday marked our seventh wedding anniversary. I'm not into the grand romantic gesture, nor am I hung up on the stereoptypical 'expressions' of love; we don't see the need to pay outrageous amounts of money for a dinner we could have...
- Peanutbutter Chocolate Chunk Cookies As Stress Relief
Sometimes, all you can do is bake. One of the easiest cookie recipes I've come across, and so good. Soft, fragrantly peanut butter-y. They're for a few friends of mine; I can't do what they do, but I can bake. So, DP, Sere, et al? Help yourselves....
