I'm 21, engaged and in college, studying interior design. Most of our meals during the school year are quick - burgers, pizza, cereal - I am looking to find healthier and better tasting meals that are quick, easy and inexspensive to prepare. While my fiance loves to bake, I love to add twists to classic recipies. I like adding cinnamon to something spicy, or salt to something sweet - just traying out different ideas - sometimes they don;t work, sometimes they do. My mother is a chef, and makes the most mouth-watering foods you will ever try. What little I know, I learned from her. We had our first family dinner a few weeks ago, and I made spaghetti - I did wonderfully - homemade sauce, homemade garlic bread - but I burned tha pasta - of all things to screw-up, I couldn't boil pasta right! For dessert, we made homemade ice cream sandwiches - the cookies were a little hard - but good once they thawed a bit! Tried to make chicken marsala for my fiance and I one Valentine's Day - it was so burned and so drenched in alcohol - it was horrible.
