   I fit that demographic (just shy of 70), but am atypical.  I spent   
   almost 20 years in the restaurant biz (mostly cooking) before I   
   had enough and went back to school to start a somewhat more   
   intellectually challenging career.  So I'm a pretty decent cook.   
   As such, I do nearly all the cooking at home (including grilling).   
      
   One night, when the kids were still at home, my wife fixed supper.   
   After getting into the meal, our youngest asked (in his inimitable   
   way), "Mom, Ted didn't make this, did he?"
