I'm a 21 year old novice cook - I just moved out on my own and am discovering how much fun cooking is! I'm also trying to get into baking and candy making. I love trying new recipes, and adjusting them to suit my tastes. I love BBQing, making casseroles, and putting together any kind of soup. I'm also trying to get into baking - my kitchen is tiny so I have to have simple recipes, but I love making muffins and cookies to take into my office and share! When I was little my mom taught me how to make brown sugar syrup for our homemade pancakes - everytime she made pancakes at home, I would make the sauce to go with them! The first time I got asked for a recipe :) When I was in high school I decided to make some cinnamon buns, but the only recipe I could find was a huge batch, so I cut it in half. However, when I went to mix the ingredients, I found myself adding the full amount of some but only half of others, and I couldn't remember how much of each I'd already done. I tried cooking them anyways, but they were terrible - and my parents were upset I'd wasted all those ingredients!
