While I do enjoy cooking, I can't say that I love it.
I DO, however, love making cooking simple, fresh, and easy. I like to cook from scratch as much as possible.
I shop and plan my menu's based on what is on sale. Since I am on a limited budget I get the most for my money by shopping around, stocking up on sales and planning a use for every item I purchase.
