Im 21, live with my b/f and we enjoy trying new recipes. Home made Pizza, appetizers, & Roast Beef Me and my two sisters and my mom all take a few days off work at the beginning of december every year and bake all day for about three days till we have more cookies and tarts and cakes and squares then anybody can handle. My mom is an amazing cook, I have watched her for years and finally after many attempts I duplicated her roast beef. The first time I cooked blackened chicken.... I used WAY to much cayenne pepper and the entire house filled up with smoke and because of all the cayenne when you went to breathe you would breathe in a bunch of pepper, my roomates and bf and I all had swollen eyes and raspy voices from choking on the pepper. I havent attempted it since. haha
