My Life & Times as a Chef

11/26/2025

Good afternoon, everyone,
My apologies for not being very active on my page as some of you that know me understand and I hope the rest of you will also.
The one thing I do keep track of is "our food" as in (unfortunately) be careful these days as we see another Major Recall from a Major Brand.

To all my Family, Friends, and Creepers/ LOL I'm going out on a limb here thinking, does America's Favorite Couple have to look like and act like Celebrities? Athlete's? Etc.
Do they have to have been the perfect couple everyone wants to be like, or do what they do? Why can't Americas Favorite Couple be just that, a couple.
A couple that's just trying to get through life and taking what life throws at them and working through it all because of the love they have for one another that is stronger than anything that can break them up or they give up.
They should show some excitement in their lives, be a positive influence on the world, know how to have fun and always but, not always have a smile. In other words, just be human and be a couple others may see love & good in.
Well, here it is. You all know I do my best to care for my wife; I know Tessie always cared for me and still does so, I signed us up to run for "AMERICAS FAVORITE COUPLE" and I'm looking for your vote. I believe this will be a wonderful and fun way to bring about awareness to the adventure we have going through as well as get to share more fun stuff we did during our beginnings. So, jump on the bus and Vote for us.... This should be fun
Voting begins JUNE 30th
