I've always been interested in cooking, but have started cooking daily now that I'm married ^_^. I used to watch the food network (when I had good cable) and I also like to try new things. Some of the dishes we make often include pastas and grilled meats. I also enjoy to make cookies and desserts. My parents are southern folks (hill billy) So we make alot of whole hearty american food. Traditional favorites would be baked beans, chicken and dumplings and sausage with sour crout. I ended up using my freshly carved halloween pumpkin and turned it into 3 yummy pumpkin pies ^_^. I have just started to pick up Sushi making, the art is amazing. I have a lot to learn, but the first time we served it our guests were very surprised it tasted and looked good ^_^. My biggest tragedy happened when I decided to be the cake baker for a friends birthday party. I cooked a box cake in a pan, only it got stuck when i tried to flip it. I ended up breaking it and scooping the cake out of the pan...and piled it ontop of the cake. From there I decided it was ruined and decided to make a themed cake mountain. I decorated it very cheasily and was the laugh of the party. Though the cake was still very delicious.
