I'm 18 years old, and I love to cook! The first thing I ask anyone who walks in my front door is usually "are you hungry??" Baking any type of sweet is definitely my favorite thing to do...cookies, cakes, pies, cupcakes, they're all fabulous! I also love to make breakfast, as well as mediterranean-style seafood dishes. Mom and I make breakfast together every year on Christmas...it's usually something different, but always includes her delicious pancakes! I still haven't quite been able to get them "just like Mom's." This past summer I made a really delicious caramel-and-chocolate layer cake, which I took to a family gathering. I was planning on bringing the leftovers home for my friends and I to share later that night, but it was gobbled up long before the party ended! The recipe was definitely a keeper =)
