Never much of a cook;married a man that is an awesome cook, doesn't need a recipe and is Cajun. Every year since marriage in 1992, have tried new things trying to improve my cooking skills. I am slowly getting better. I cook 4 days a week and try to very it up so family doesn't get bored. chicken stir-fry, anything in the crock pot, vegetarian meals cooking one night a week for my family from about 13 on. I cooked the same thing everytime but no one ever complained. none yet I can not bake at all. Not sure why! Sweets and deserts are out of the question
