My name is Becky, and I am 24 and recently married (October 2004). Mark and I have been together for five years, several of which we were both still in college and ate fast food every day. Now that we're married and out of school, I am constantly looking for new things to cook that are quick and easy. I also LOVE to bake. I'd rather make dessert than a meal any day. I love to make and decorate cakes (my newest hobby). I tend to rely on very quick easy recipes when I cook, especially pizza margherita!! So simple, so incredible, especially with fresh tomatoes. My husband is a picky eater though, so I am constantly trying to find things that we'll both eat. My husband can only cook one thing- his family's spaghetti recipe. It's amazing (and secret). I love to be with him in the kitchen when he's cooking it. And holidays around our house are always filled with lots of food, family, laughter and love. My pumpkin roll is undoubtedly the best thing I make and it really impressed all of my husband's family, which made me feel like a million bucks. It is now requested for every Thanksgiving and Christmas- I don't think they'd let me come without one!! AAhh. I remember the day well. The first and only time I tried to make snickerdoodles. My roommate at the time thought he was very funny, and he labeled a container with powdered sugr in it as "flour." I was a novice, and not paying attention, and I used powdered sugar instead of flour in the recipe. Those "cookies" (if you could even call them that) ran all over the pan, all over the oven.... Disaster. I couldn't figure out what I had done wrong, so I scraped the gooey runny mess into the trash. Two weeks later my now mother-in-law came over and was making home-made pizza. SHe asked if I had any more flour, her dough was a little wet. So I got out the "flour." She said, "This dough just keeps getting stickier!!" That's when it hit me that my cooking wasn't off, but my roommate was quite the prankster.
