I wish I had time to cook, but as long as I'm tethered to a timeclock, I just lack the ambition. Your recipes sound so good. Maybe someday....
 
I know how you feel. I do cook a lot during the summer months because I'm off work, but it's hard to find time when you're bound by that nasty old schedule!
