I raised my three children by myself. So while I was working two jobs I learned all kinds of ways to save money and time. I was blessed with a daughter that liked to cook and we did a lot of exploring together. (food wise) They are all grown now and I'm still learning how to cook for one. I love baking different things(out of the ordinary). I'm also extremely curious about how to reproduce common grocery store items like for instance sweetened condensed milk, so I don't always to run to the store for ingredients. Sunday morning omelets. Christmas breakfast. Homemade pizza night. Sausage gravy and biscuits,cream puffs and baklava I'm still trying to make good beans(dried) consistently.
