I am a mom who is trying to experiment with new recipes because me and my family are tired of the same old stuff. I like baking cakes, anything sweet. My grandmother makes the worlds best pound cake. People have actually offered to pay me for it. I was very happy when i learned how to make country fried steak right. And I'm proud of my beef stew, my sisters and my husbands co-workers will fight over it. I can't make gravy right no matter how hard I try. For right now I'm just sticking to McCormick gravy mix.
