I remember a lovely, fiery, redhead many years ago cooking a wonderful meal for two, with Zabaglione (yes, including the Marsala!) as dessert - really tasty. Come to think on it, there may have been an ulterior motive... and no YouTube back then, either innocent

Biology and Chemistry, both good in my book, bring'em on @Mi-Amigo 🤠
