I am not what you would call a good cook. In fact, all of my new bake and cooking wear are prestine due to lack of use. I am learning though. I love to learn about new salad recipes! A book of family recipes with my Great Grandfather's picture on it. It has recipes from the last three to four generations. Just cooking without burning the house down. Trying to make sugar cookies and forgetting to add flour. Instead I doubled up on the sugar. Good-bye baking pan! Hello black charcoal!!!
