I'm 24 years old and i can cook just enough to keep myself (and usually my younger brothers and sister) from starving (aka I can make spaghetti and baked chicken) Spaghetti, it's my favorite thing to cook cause it's about the only thing I can cook. my mom doesn't cook much, but I love her gumbo and her vegtable soup and cornbread are my comfort foods. They have to be made by Mama for them to work. Anything that comes out edible. This one time, I tried a grilled chicken recipie I found on here, and ended up melting the aluminum foil into the chicken. Oh yes, that IS possible. We couldn't even give it to the dogs because my mother was afaid it would give them aluminum posioning or something.
