When a mutual friend announced her engagement, my girlfriend and the other ladies asked her what she wanted or needed. She said she'd love a year's subscription to Home Cooking. You see, she can't cook. She invited us over one night for dinner and I could not figure out what she made. I know she'll love the magazine because the recipes aren't that complicated, and readers get good advice and tips in every issue. Maybe one day her future husband will love her for her cooking talents as well.
