My favorite things to cook
Chicken! I love leaving chicken in a marinade for a day or two and cooking it up all juicy tender flavorful. SO good!
My cooking triumphs
Being a poor recent college grad, I once spent two weeks using only what I had in my pantry to make really good meals. I had to get really creative with spices and sides... I made Italian wedding soup, homemade pizza, some kind of lime and cilantro rice/bean thing, and lots more.
My cooking tragedies
Snickerdoodles... I was probably 16 at the time, making snickerdoodles for the first time. Somewhere in the middle of making them the page got turned and I didn't notice... somehow omitted the sugar and they came out completely inedible. We put all sorts of stuff on them to try to sweeten them up - honey, powdered sugar, icing - but they were really disgusting.
