I just moved to San Francisco in November. Frankly the sheer cost of eating out forced me to learn how to cook! But the wonderful thing is I love it! Every day is chance to try something now. I am lucky that within walking distance I have every market for every ethnicity in the world! So far a lot of Asian dishes. My boyfriend loves them and so do I. Going over to Grandma's for pot roast. That was a treat I miss. Also her mini-pecan pies and mom's Christmas salad. Also, I can never eat another lemon bar, my sister made them constantly in high school, the smell makes me sick! That moment when you are cooking and it all just clicks and you just KNOW it's going to work out.. None yet, but I am not so cocky to think there won't be many!
