My sister says I'm the best cook in the family but I'm not really. I just try recipes that we didn't eat growing up and when I find one I really like I share it at a family dinner. I love to cook food in the crock pot because it's simple, easy and doesn't heat up the house. I made biscuits once and used too much Crisco and they melted in the oven. That was a long, long time ago :-)
