I have been cooking since I was about 8 years old. As soon as I could look into the pot without a stool!! My parents had actually made it one of my chores to cook dinner because the food was good. I really started experimenting when I got married. About every week I pop in a new dish. My husband absolutely loves it! One thing about my cooking is it has LOTS of flavor. I usually always add a little more seasonings when I use a recipe off the internet or out of a book....
My favorite things to cook
Everything really... I seem to like to cook chicken because 1-its good for you and 2- there is so many ways to cook and flavor it. Oh, and must not forget pastas!
My favorite family cooking traditions
I haven't started any yet. But I'm sure I will soon have the Thanksgiving dinner down to a tee.
My cooking triumphs
Last Thanksgiving I cooked dinner all by myself for 7 people. And everyone loved it! Since then we have moved across the country, and our friends are saying they wish I was still around to cook them dinner again! That was the greatest compliment ever.. Well besides when a friend told me the food tastes like a chef at a restaurant would make!! Ever since I've decided I'm going to go to Culinary school as soon as my kids are out of diapers!
My cooking tragedies
Woa, I tried to make my own Fettuccine Alfredo.. That was really bad! Along with my Cheddar and broccoli soup.. Im not to great with the crock pot unless I have a detailed recipe!
