The best part of cooking is being able to share my dishes with my friends and family. I've often bake and cook exclusively for this purpose. I really enjoy baking - I've been doing it since I was a child, in fact. Recently I've been trying to get more involved in cooking more elaborate meals and appetizers and have found I enjoy this quite a lot as well. My family is Polish and I'm from the midwest so cooking warm, feel-good dishes is in my blood. I like to make my family dishes healthier so I can feel better about feeding them to my own children. I've had a few. Really I just have a couple of dishes that are a regular hit. I just need more of them. Oh I've had some :)
