About this Cook
I have little confidence in my cooking skills. I want to get better. Both of my grandmothers are great cooks. My mother was pretty good, but she did not have time to teach me. So... I am flying solo.
My favorite things to cook
Anything that is 4 ingredients or less and takes little to no time to prepare. Hey... I am being honest.
My favorite family cooking traditions
My maternal grandmother is a great cook- she makes stir fry, crepes, bakes and can pretty much cook anything. She liked to experiment a lot. My paternal grandmother is a southern cook. If it is fried, she can make it and make it GOOD. Needless to say... I like it both ways.
My cooking triumphs
I made a chicken pie over the summer and the church people ate every drop! Yahoo! I tried cream cheese squares the other day and they turned out REALLY good as well.
My cooking tragedies
Uh... There are too many to tell. Naw... really it has not been that bad. I tried creamed corn one time and it was good, so I thought I had it down pat. The next time I attempted it... NOT SO. Cooking is a perfected art; a skill. I suppose I will have to work really hard to acquire it.
