I live in LA County with my boyfriend and we both work and go to school. I really enjoy cooking meals for us and trying new things. However, it is very difficult because he is a very, VERY picky eater. But, I still really enjoy making dishes that please both of us. I am into rock music, fashion, exercise, cooking, and learning. I love to cook just about anything. I enjoy cooking dinners the most, and I usually cook typical American cuisine, e.g. casseroles, American pastas, grilling, etcetera, but occasionally I try something different or ethnic to keep it from becoming boring. I was raised in the Midwest so I kind of came out appreciating heartier, bolder tastes. I haven't had too much experience baking and I'm kind of apprehensive to begin trying! Baking definitely has more potential for disaster because you have to get the recipe and the cooking/baking just right. I would like to try nicely-presented dishes or really fancy cuisine, just for fun! Though it is still just us two, we managed to pull off entire Thanksgiving and Christmas dinners last year, our first year away from home for the holidays. That was so much fun and a great thing to remember. I've found that cooking is so much easier than it seems, but it just takes practice! Once you start to actually learn and taste the differences between the flavors you add to dishes, it's all downhill from there! Anything I made when I began cooking, and some experimental dishes.
