I have a goal this year to be a great cook and I am starting from scratch. I just made my first purchase from the butcher at the grocery store instead of the frozen foods section. I have been married just over two years and I love to cook and try new foods. I love to cook fish and anything mexican. I also love cheap, quick and easy recipes. I love to cook like it cost a million bucks but I made it for less than $5.00. My family only cooked on Christmas and Thanksgiving. I love the holidays because the food is all homemade. Anytime my husband asks to have the dish I made again. It makes me feel like I am a gourmet chef. I made some Asian pasta one time and misread the recipe. I added a tablespoon of chili flakes instead of a 1/2 teaspoon and we couldn't even eat the dish without a big chugg of milk between every bite. Even my lips were on fire from licking them after I ate the pasta. It was a Hot night!
