In the past I had a husband and two sons, but after kids grew up and a divorce I'm single.

I generally like cooking. The real drawback to only cooking for one is that either there are a lot of leftovers of things that I almost never make because it's hard to scale down the amounts to a single serving.

On the up side, my food costs are minimal, especially since at this point in my life I simply don't eat very much.
