There is the person who enjoys cooking and decides the recipes. This team is eating more chicken and low fat recipes and have been successful in many losing weight. Then the cook usually does the grocery shopping. But in return, those who don't cook, clean up. They enjoy sitting around the table together and sharing thoughts and life. Another retired fireman told me this week, he regularly ate meals together at his fire house. A very close friend and co- fireman for years, still get together once a week to go out to dinner. His friend lost his wife and enjoys this weekly time to get together. And at church yesterday, we all brought something to share after church. UMMMM- good! We had 3 different types of salads, fresh fruit, and home-made sour cream pound cake. Team cooking works in so many situations- get on a team, cook once a week, then no need to "fire-up" your kitchen the other nights.
