I'm young but i've had a passion for cooking for many years. i am adicted to the food network but never quite take thier recipies word for word i always substitute or put my own spin on things. I grew up with middleeastern food(lebenese) which means lots of fresh ingredients. family meals, something simple i can make after school, and baking for special occasions. think "Big Fat Greek Wedding" and use your imagination. Olive bread, Oreo Cheesecake,red velevet cupcakes, orange punkin spice cake, minestrone soup, kishe, stuffed red peppers, GINGERBREAD COOKIES!with cinamon frosting(they were awesome)! brownies multiple times.....i can never do it alone. they only come out right when i make them with friends.turkish coffee brownies(too much coffee) i thought they were bad but my friend loved them!
