I'm a very fun loving easy going person. I've been cooking for my family since I was a preteen and I actually hated it. As I got older I began to enjoy working in the kitchen and now I try to learn as much as I can. I love cooking Pasta, Shrimp and Chicken. My family doesn't really have cooking traditions. We usually have a very large Christmas dinner that everybody contributes to. My contribution, the salad. I got a recipe for grilled Pork Chops on the Allrecipes site which was a real hit with my family. I felt really good. I've had a lot of disasters, burned meat, too much salt. It's all a part of the learning process.
