I'm a single gal that likes to cook but rarely has someone to cook for. Enter the current boyfriend. I enjoy cooking for him and it's encouraging when he compliments my meals.
My favorite things to cook
I like to cook just about everything. I'm still learning so I don't know what I don't like to cook, yet.
My favorite family cooking traditions
Around Christmas we will bake cookies. For years I would have about 3-4 cookie recipes going.
I also enjoy making collard greens for Thanksgiving. It's my great-grandmother's recipe.
My cooking triumphs
Making a meal all by myself and having someone praise it. I haven't done the big stuff like a full Thanksgiving dinner. Alone. I'll save that for when I'm married.
My cooking tragedies
Not really cooking, but I lost the recipe book with my favorite Christmas cookies. It was a sad day when I realized that book was gone.
