How it started

I remember where and when she said I'll just never be able to quote her verbatim. We were at work at Legal Seafoods working one of our first shifts upstairs together. She was telling me about the girls in her life. One was a vegetarian, another a vegan, one ate seafood and a unique combination of meat product but she couldn't seem to keep them all straight. Which girl was she going out with for dinner the next time? She always seemed to mix them up. They were all just too picky for her. I thought she's cool. She MUST like all sorts of foods. I grew up eating almost everything. I love food and was excited to have someone to go on new food adventures with. I hadn't dated a woman in over five years and was happily dating a man. So we were JUST friends. It was great. It still is for that matter. It all changed one Tuesday night. Thanks Ross. Kim and I just started. You can say it was the vodka, but I think it was just meant to be. I digress...I brought up the food for a reason. So here I was starting to date this phenomenal woman who loved different foods, right? WRONG. She has to be the pickiest person I have ever met. For example, she told me she likes nuts. That's not exactly true she doesn't actually like nuts she'll eat peanuts but not any other nuts. There are many similar picky food combinations I've come across. She will try things IF she's in the mood and not too many new things at one time. I'm on my way to culinary school and love to try/cook new things. Watch while I go through the list of her likes, dislikes, attempt to cook around them, sneak things in to get her to try, and pick new places for us to try. It should be great fun for us all.
