I am recently retired and learning to cook. The recipes and reviews on this site have been very helpful to me.
I think the hobbies list on this site needs to be expanded to include more diverse interests like golf, watching football and beer drinking.
My favorite things to cook
Cincinnati style chili or home-made spaghetti and meat balls.
My cooking triumphs
The first time I made macaroni and cheese my wife raved to her friends about how good it was. No one had ever reacted like that to anything I had made before.
My cooking tragedies
The first pie I made looked like Key Lime soup in a pie crust.
