I'm primarily a gardener. I have moments when I like to cook. These occur mostly during our long northern winter. I am a good cook when I feel like cooking. Anything Mexican. I also like to use my slow cooker and bake. I guess the first time I made something that wowed was just after college when I made a vegetarian lasagna without a recipe to take to work for a party. Everyone absolutely loved it and couldn't believe a kid like me could cook something so amazing. I don't think I even got to taste it myself before it was gone. Of course, I've never been able to make it again so well.
