Our first winner in the new Freezer Cook of the Month contest is Linda W., with the following funny story:

"This is actually a crazy cooking story that involved my husband. I had planned to make Beef Stew one day for supper, but had to run an unexpected errand before I could start the stew. My husband said he would be glad to get it going for me. When I returned from the errand he told me I needed to get garlic the next time I went to the grocery store since he had used all I had. I didn't understand this since I knew I had close to a head and the stew recipe only called for one clove. I then realized that he thought a clove meant the entire thing! He had put a whole head of garlic in our stew. We tried to eat it, but as much as I like garlic, that was just too much. I still kid him about that and he hasn't made stew since."

Congratulations, Linda! You too can get in on the winning by posting your funny story, good deed, cooking tip, assembly day story, etc. on the message boards under the appropriate category, or email Tammy at tammy@30daygourmet.com.
