I love to cook and eat and so does DH. Almost everything i make is easy, made from Cooking Light, particularly the fast recipes, or Food and Wine. I hardly use the recipes I used to make, even 10 years ago. We buy exclusively from the local farms at this time of year, and when I have fish, it's from a real fish market/butcher. Lots of ethnic food and I don't mind eating breakfast for dinner or a sandwich. Cooking is relaxing to me, after listening to people's problems all day...
We are probably the only family that spends more on food since the kids left home.

Sounds great. I used to enjoy cooking but after a long period of severe depression I kind of lost any enthusiasm for it, and haven't found it again yet. Plus moving to the US 2 years ago, it took me a while to get used to new ingredients etc, and not being able to get some things I took for granted. Hopefully I will rekindle my interest soon.
