Obsessed would be accurate in some circles.

For example...
Tonight is "Finish it" night - whatever is in the fridge gets used to make dinner. It offers the chance to combine things one would normally not and see what happens...
We found a couple pork chops, 4 small apples, a cucumber, a can of green beans and of course some shrooms we got last fall.
I tossed the meat in a large sautee pan with some olive oil, butter & cajun spice. In a smaller pan we began the mushrooms in butter with a touch of S&P. Then we added in the apples (diced) with maple syrup, honey BBQ sauce & a touch of worcestershire.
When the pork chops were almost done in went the mushroom & apple mix simmered for 10 minutes on low to thicken the sauce. Green beans & a slice of bread on the side. Voila. dinner was served. Normally these creations end up just being odd. This one however I will repeat. It was excellent. None left, didn't even make it to pics.
