My name is Jennifer and I have been married to a chef for 25 years.
I blog about my life as a chef wife and how we combine restaurant and family life each day.

For the last two posts in this series, I’m going to share with you blogs that are entirely dedicated to being married to or dating a chef.

I’m back this week with some more reading material for you. I hope you have been enjoying these posts and that they help you feel like you are not so alone! I know that’s how I felt when I first read them.
Cooking for a Chef
It is never a good sign when your chef/husband looks over at you when you are chopping something and asks, “Are you OK over there?” Sigh . . .
Glad that doesn’t happen often – LOL!!
