I don't remember why I wanted to start cooking, even though it has only been a year, but i've just always interested in the culinary arts. My mom supported me through it and always gave me feedback on my cooking. One day i do plan on going to a culinary college to get a degree so i can become a chef or maybe open a casual gormet Itlian Resturaunt. I'm always experimenting and since I can't afford as much wine, olive oil, or getting the ingridents that you can't find anywhere else but specialty shops for Itlian gourmet, I can't really take chances with creating my own recipes or make them all the time. So even though i love to make things like you find in a top notch itlian resturaunt like Romano and risotto, I have to make cheaper meals, like grilled chicken, grilled ribs and grilled burgers which so happens to be my famly's favorite meals, i dont see why they love grilling so much but it's still fun. Unfortunatley my favorite traditional meal is something i don't make, it's just always been up to my dad to deep fry the turkey, but thats ok beacaue he coached me through it once and it just feels like a job rather than cooking. I don't really have a story that sticks out in eathier my triumphs or tragidies, but i'm sure they will happen soon. it will come one day
