I never really enjoyed cooking until recently. I joke that the main reason I like to cook now is because of the recipe database I have on the computer using allrecipes! I enjoy finding ways to make awesome food out of healthy ingredients. muffins, smoothies, cookies, to name a few. I like to find new things to cook out of ingredients already in my kitchen, which is one reason I love this site. Making Christmas cookies and treats with my mom. Now I like to cook with my 6 year old daughter, it takes a lot of patience, but it is great time together. She really enjoys it and who knows, she may be the next Rachel Ray! I could never cook anything without having the recipe in front of me, but I am starting to learn and experiment on my own and meals are still tasting good, so I think that is huge! So many tragedies, so little space to type them all... Probably once a month, but I don't give up. :)
