I started cooking when I was very young out of necessity. Today my grown daughter thinks I have the answers to all that is food. She lives in Texas and calls me frequently with cooking questions. I love that we have bonded on this level. Mexican food, chicken dishes and homemade sauces. Making everything from scratch. One thing my mother was good at was cooking. and I love to see people enjoying my food. I was ecstatic to be able to feed my German born husband Schnitzel. Also homemade chicken pot pie. I even started trying homemade breads. Nothing smells as good as bread baking. Crock pot Beef Stroganoff. I don't really care for this But my husband is German and really loves this.
