My favorite things to cook
I like making raw foods, anything with garlic, anything with cheese, and gourmet desserts.
My favorite family cooking traditions
Making homemade sugar cookies for Halloween and Valentine's day, and pumpkin custard pies for Christmas and Thanksgiving!
My cooking triumphs
Making an awesome pumpkin chai cheesecake from scratch, and making a really good moist turkey on Thanksgiving a few years ago.
My cooking tragedies
My friend and I, both about 13 years old, were making sugar cookies at her grandma's house when we ran out of flour. We found what we thought was flour in a big bucket, and it made the hardest cookies ever. It turned out to be powdered milk! They did make good teething biscuits for my baby brother.
