I have recently gotten married. I like to go to the farmer's market, and plant a few things in our garden. Cooking is one of my favorite things to do in my spare time (eating is too) I like to cook all sorts of everything, I don't bake much, and if a recipe has spring form pans, or separated eggs (too complicated for a simpleton like me) I avoid it. I really love to make soups and casseroles because they are so versatile. there are few dishes that only my parents could make, luckily they showed me how to make them, and now I am the sole person in my family who knows how to make "barboodle" and my parents fried scallops, which are to die for!!! When my husband said I was a "GOOD" cook. I thought I just cooked... any time I try to make gravy, other than from a mix...
