I just got married 6 months ago, and 4 months after that adopted a 2 year old, so I'm suddenly domesticated! I'm just learning to actually cook real meals and ditch the hamburger helper.
My favorite things to cook
Anything my family likes.
My favorite family cooking traditions
Fudge and sausage balls every Christmas
My cooking triumphs
After one full year of numerous attempts and zero successes, I finally flipped a pancake - perfectly!
My cooking tragedies
My husband's best friend was staying with us for a while. I cooked pancakes for everyone one morning, and me and my husband ate, but Justin wasn't hungry yet. I told Justin we were leaving and I was going to put the pancakes in the oven on the "Warm" setting for him when he got ready to eat. Trouble was, the pancakes were on plastic plates!!! It took 3 hours to clean the oven, but we've got this cool looking contraption sitting over our stove now as a reminder...
