My favorite things to cook
Everything! Really, I love to experiment with new things.
My favorite family cooking traditions
My dad cooked breakfast for us every Saturday morning and now I do the same for my boyfriend and I.
My cooking triumphs
Finding out I could actually cook really well to rave reviews from others! I've been asked to cook for parties, for meals for my friends... but I feel great with every meal I make. But my favourite is the first pie I ever made. It was apple with a lattice crust, made completely from scratch and it was absolutely delicious. The next was a recent cake that I not only made from scratch, I mostly made up the recipe for. It turned out absolutely delightful.
My cooking tragedies
Ooh, I made a pumpkin pie for Halloween that somehow sunk into layers. There was the crust, and the normal pumpkin-y top layer that should have been the entire filling. Somehow, the egg mixture (and only that) sunk to the bottom and turned into... its own white layer. So I had a multilayered pumpkin pie. It didn't taste bad, but I was really upset by it.
