I have two picky toddlers, so i try to find recipes they will like. I love trying new recipes! I like to use the ingredient search on here to use what i have on hand, for sure. my fave thing to cook is chicken salad! I love onions, so its a great vehicle for me to just load on the onion. Plus, its easy! Also, anything in the crock pot i love, and i like to use my bread machine when i can. my mom and i would make fudge every year at Christmas to bag and hand out to my family on Christmas Eve. We'd forget till the last minute almost every year, so it was funny! my first batch of cookies ever were really good! And lately,thanks to this website, I've been wowing my husband! No tragedies yet, just disapointments like when something you worked hard on was not very good. I did cut up jalapenos once without gloves, only washed my hands once and rubbed my eyes an hour later...yowie!
