Anna came home one night to a wonderful smell.
'Wow! Smells good! What are you making?' She asked.
'Some exotic pasta! I think you'll like this.' Callen replied.
'I bet!'
At dinner
'Wow! This pasta is really good! What kind of recipe is this?' Anna asked.
'I asked Hetty earlier for some recipe suggestions, and she gave me this one.' Callen replied.
Anna read the recipe. 'She's got good taste. Does this also come with a note that says 'Don't burn down the kitchen'?'
Callen chuckled uncomfortably. 'Back when she was teaching me how to cook, I had a bad habit of almost setting the kitchen on fire.'
'Bet she was really annoyed at that.'
'Oh she was! Eventually, she gave up. But one night, I surprised her with an edible meal. I think she almost cried.'
'Did she love it?' Anna asked.
'She did. Do you love this?' Callen replied.
'Very much!'
Smiling. 'Thanks.'
