Married...almost 4 years now and live with my wonderful husband a very spoiled dog and 5 equally spoiled chicken's. I love cooking all things. I really enjoy cooking for others. I was raised in a "meat & potato" family .... At the holidays I really let 'er rip...cooking & baking goodies. I don't feel I have EVER had a "triumph"....yet! However, learning to make my own piecrust instead of buying it was a HUGE accomplishment for me. Does finding my Cuisinart food processer at a yard sale for $5.00 count? I think it does. LOL I have MANY! LOL LOL But you just either trash the recipe or learn from what you did wrong...it's all good.
