I'm cooking nice things (there's a need!).
I was running some suggestions past Himself. A present of a new dessert cookery book has whetted my appetite for new delights.
Me: 'Well, there's a chocolate cream pie....?'
Himself : 'What's that?'
Me: A pound of chocolate and a pound of butter with sugar, eggs & cream'
Himself : 'A pound of sausages and what..?'

I made it anyway.
