I'm married, have a rambunctious toddler, expecting another one before the year's end, and am juggling university classes as well. Most anything that has to do with baking is therapeutic for me. I admire those that cook completely from scratch and will not give up until I have attained that knowledge for myself as well.
My favorite things to cook
I'm willing to take a try at anything that goes into an oven. My stovetop skills still need some tuning. :)
My favorite family cooking traditions
Still have yet to create some good ones for my own family. Though I miss the homemade pizza nights, corn soup, venison stew and fry bread that I grew up with.
My cooking triumphs
Making my first banana cream pie from scratch, which my mother-in-law told me put hers to shame.
My cooking tragedies
My first attempt at biscuits from scratch. They were flat frisbees, not even fit for the birds.
