About bookman
Hello, everyone! I just joined the site last night and wanted to take the opportunity to introduce myself. My name is Bookman and I came here from another site where I cruised under the same name. The reason I chose Bookman is that I love to read. It is very hard to find me at leisure or commuting on the bus without a book or other reading material at hand.
I'm 46, brown hair, blue eyes and have a great sense of humor. I'm also single and looking. I've been told I'm a better than decent cook, so I'm attending a culinary school to become a certified prep cook. The only real difference between me and a regular prep cook will be that piece of paper. I need it to help me get a job in the Seattle area. It's a tough job market here.
I've also been told I give pretty good advice, so bring it on. I relate better to the older crowd, but the younger ones are more than welcome. I'll be happy to give you the benefit of my experience, and as egotistical as it sounds, I have a lot of experiences others may not have. I have led a full, exciting life! My specialties are cooking, books, spirituality and relationships. I threw the random weirdo into my profile just for fun.
Anyway, that's me! So here I am! Let's get this party started!

I want to make dinner for my boyfriend. I'm an ok cook but not really great or anything. Does anyone have any ideas of a nice meal I could cook that would be pretty easy to do? I'm not looking to make frozen pizza or anything, I really want to do this right.
Here's what you can do.
1. Set your oven on 350*.
2. Take two steaks or chops and season them how you like then set aside in fridge.
3. Rough chop (bite size pieces) some red and white onion; red,green and yellow bell pepper and some mushrooms.
4. Place veggies in a bowl and toss with extra virgin olive oil and your favorite spices until coated.
5. Spread veggies on sheet pan and set aside.
6. Now, cut two Roma Tomatoes in half lengthwise and coat in oil & spice mixture from bowl.
7. Place on sheet pan with other veggies.
8. Put the veggies and the meat in the oven and cook until the veggies are done. (The skin on the tomatoes will start to shrivel up. About 30 minutes.)
9. Remove veggies, turn meat and put oven on Broil. Cook 3-5 minutes.
10. Remove and enjoy

How should cucumbers be stored?
Uncut Cucumbers should be stored in the refrigerator. If part is cut off, tightly wrap it first. If it is cut into pieces (sliced or cubed) store tightly sealed in cold water to maintain crispness.
