65 yrs. old; retired and enjoying life in Central Texas with my husband, who is wild about my cooking! ;-) I am diabetic and have to cook low carb. low fat and low sugar. It's a real challenge, for sure. My mother, who was born in 1905, passed down many recipes and traditions of her Southern upbringing. I continue to find her recipes and copy them to use in my own kitchen. Many good times in the kitchen, so I can't name a "triumph". None too serious to remember, but I have left a pan of eggs boiling while I went off to do something else -- with the horrible, smelly and pot scorching result!!!
