Timing is everything, maybe even the hardest thing, in both love and cooking.
Meeting the right person at the right time is like opening the oven door to find the souffle peaked perfectly. Staying in a relationship too long is akin to lingering over a mediocre main course and having the souffle sink. Cooking for the same person day in, day out for 26 years, well, that requires, swapping out the souffle for an easy five-minute hot fudge sauce and two kinds of ice cream to make everybody happy.
