Just call me Susie Homemaker!

According to my guy friends I am a triple threat. What is that you might ask well according to them I am hot, I cook, and I clean. Well ladies and gentlemen that is a compliment I will take a shout from the roof tops. Ya hear that men, I am a triple threat! Watch out! I also like to think I have a killer personality I am funny yet sensitive! Wow that kind of sounds like a line from a personal ad.

Well onto where I am actually going with this, the cooking portion of my trifecta. Cooking shows and blogs are my porn. Well along with some select shows on hgtv! I love smitten kitchen, tartelette and many other foodie blogs out there. The things they feature make me swoon almost as much when Paula Deen says just a little bit more butter! So everyday the idea of being a housewife is growing on me, and whoever I marry is going to be one lucky guy! Yep I am that confident. I can cook! I grew up cooking and watching my mother cook and I loved every minute of it. The getting covered in flour, sitting in front of the oven watching something bake, to tasting the end result.

Anyways I love food! I love to cook and I love to eat. Now granted there are things I do not eat everyone has those things that make them go eewww. One of those things for me is olives! I mean I love things that are salty but olives make me cringe or if you want to send me running for the hills brussel sprouts that might do it to. I am not sure I could marry someone with a love for olives..heathen! No I jest I am sure I could work it out, those olives just wouldn't be in my house ha! I am a woman and we always get our way gentlemen one way or another. If you think you have won chances are you really haven't we just have give you a false feeling of victory! There I go again digressing! okay back on topic....

I also love it when people enjoy the food that I cook. Maybe it is the feeling of making others happy with something so simple. I actually got a marriage proposal from someone this weekend over my food. I know this person was joking but it gave me that happy feeling that someone enjoyed what I made so much! I mean how many moments in our childhood do we have memories with food. I have a lot of memories over a meal or just little things that my mom would do to cheer me up or just because.

Maybe that is just the power of a good meal or the power of the effort behind the meal. But the idea of having someone walk into my house and have it smelling of great food makes me smile. So the idea of being a housewife is not such a bad thing in my mind. Now do not get me wrong I think I would have to have something else to occupy my time but that is why the idea of doing special events on the side is appealing! But cooking after a bad day just makes it a little more bearable. Now don't get me wrong flopping down on the couch and laying my head on the persons shoulder I am dating with the just the flicker of the TV pretty much can make the day melt away as well. Who wouldn't mind doing all that with some good food and building a memory. Food and cooking is just one of my many passions. Hopefully you have something you are passionate about as well!

Flashing you smile and till next time!
