I've been cooking for as long as I can remember (as a matter of fact, I remember my first meal at 11; fried chicken, corn on the cob and mashed potatoes) but recently I have found that cooking is my "creative outlet". I love cooking just about anything, I especially love figuring out things that people may not have tried and I try to surprise their taste buds. My mom's home made cinnamon rolls, they've never been reproduced. I've conquered cakes! My first meal mentioned above was TERRIBLE. I couldn't figure out why the chicken didn't look like KFC chicken so I kept it frying for a very, very long time, until it was brown. By then it was more like chicken jerky ;)
