I am a new wife and new to the art of cooking. I've dabbled in desserts for the last couple years but nothing too serious. I'm ready to learn my way around a casserole! Anything dessert-ish. I'm best with cookies but I also do cakes, brownies, bars... I haven't learned how to cook it yet, but my mother's Thanksgiving dinner is killer. She's got a lot of great recipes I hope to learn to call my own. Vanilla pudding chocolate chip cookies--my husband asks for them weekly! too many to name...many a dinner has turned out in disaster...poor hubby!
