mercy! i cook those dinners for just the two of us three times a year [easter we switch to lamb or ham with the same sides xcept for stuffing]. learning to trim the recipes from 15 to 2 took quite a while - but the lefovers are great! and i am glad that we have a great orchard nearby where we can buy the traditional pies for dessert!
Your husband had better keep a close eye on you, you're the type of cook men dream about.
