On Happy Catholic's recommendation, I took a look at Pioneer Woman, which is the blog of a big-city law student who allowed herself to be swept away by a literal cowboy, married him, and now keeps his house and raises his children, among other things. She also has a cooking blog, at which she posts the "embrace the pot roast" recipes she's mastered because ranchers don't eat sushi. The comments on this recipe are hilarious and quite telling. Samples:My husband is a man of few words, but this got a “can you make this again, soon” from him. That’s the best compliment he’s given me in 5+ yearsAnd:
I think my husband almost ran out and bought another diamond to re-propose to me. He was in heaven. I cook chick food almost all the time, so all this beef and butter and yummy goodness was a real treat for him.
Not to mention:
I DON’T KNOW HOW TO COOK, yet I made these sandwhiches for my husband Saturday and HE TOLD ME HE LOVED ME AND KISSED ME ON THE HEAD OUT OF THE BLUE!!!!! [snip]Your recipes are igniting a fire of romance in my home....And:
OMG, I made this for my husband and I don’t think he will ever be the same.It seems if the "it" has gone out the relationship, a bit of red meat might do the trick. As I have noted previously.
