I have always loved cooking and baking. My mom and grandma took me into the kitchen when I was really young (about 2 years old) and I have started cooking with no help when I was about 7 years old. I collect recipes, recipe books and e-recipes. Anything and everything. However, I am one outstanding baker :o) and of lately enjoy greatly experimenting with thai food In my family we love cooking and cooking for family and friends. For me food and cooking for my family (and friends) is just one way to show them that I love them. Never mind if it is the usual daily meals or a family gathering. Many. I have been cooking for over 25 years! Not too many. Here and there a recipe that didn't work out, but nothing tragic
