Cooking With Gas

I came home from work tonight to one of the most pleasant surprises that I have had in a while. The aroma was mouthwatering. Caz was completing setting a full table setting complete with candlesticks and formal tapers. He lit the candles and then proceed to don a set of oven mitts. He pulled out of the very hot oven, two homemade macaroni and cheese casseroles. One was meatless. The other had buffalo chicken bits. Caz and Demi proceeded to tell me how Caz had decided to cook dinner. Demi supervised of course. But Caz did all the prep work and cooking. He boiled the water and cooked the macaroni. He sauteed up the buffalo marinated chicken in a large frying pan. He put everything in the corningware baking dishes. He added the four different cheeses, mozzarella, parmigiana, Havarti, and Gorgonzola. And he preheated the oven, and when ready place the casseroles in to bake. I was very proud of him and told him so. He grinned ear to ear while he dished out every one's portions. This was quite a family dinner.
