I am currently a University student. Obtaining my degree in Accounting, one of the things I love doing is baking for my friends. I just started a diet this year and I am at a weight loss of 50 lbs. So unfortunately I am unable to taste my delicious treats I make but all my friends tell me whether they are good or not!
My favorite things to cook
I love to bake cookies and treats. The orginal chocolate chip cookies and chocolate cake are my favourite. Anything with chocolate really. I am a chocoholic.
My favorite family cooking traditions
Well I am polish so we like making perogies. Every year for Christmas I am in charge of making the perogies for the Eve dinner. Sourkraut and mushroom that go into our borsh.
Thinking back to my childhood, one of the things I remember was making pies with my mom. Rolling out and cutting the pastry for the crust and making the filling of the fruit that was in season. It was one of the things we did to relax and after we got to enjoy a peice of pie with vanilla ice cream.
My cooking triumphs
My lasagna is pretty awesome and I love filling it full. Stir frys are amazing and I ove throwing in lots of colour into them. Also I am very well ppreciated for making salads and pitas in my family. My paents love all the funky things I toss into my salads.
My cooking tragedies
Since I have only been following recipes online and experimenting I have come across many tragedies! From ruining my blackforest cakes, brownies, and cookies in desserts everyone sometimes enjoyed at least something else like my amazing cupcakes. But without a few mistakes there would never be progress..
