20. That sounds like a really good idea

Learn some new skills and develop your own personal recipe file.

As someone who has been married - more than once - and has raised kids, I say
enjoy this time you have alone to find out who you are. Don't let someone else - or partnership with someone else -
define who you are. Discover what it is you enjoy doing, what your true goals are.

Look at this as an opportunity to develop yourself, and when the right person shows up - WOO HOO - you are free to enjoy the opportunity.

Let us know how the cooking classes work out.
