Newly wed, having fun trying to come up with a new experiment for DH each night. Thankfully, he's more than willing to try everything I concoct and gives great feedback. More often than not, he actually likes it!
My favorite things to cook
It's so satisfying to come up with anything that people enjoy. I've recently become more interested in baking too. . .
My favorite family cooking traditions
Cooking without a recipe. I always ask my mom how she makes something, and invariably she just says, "I don't know, I'll have to pay attention next time I make it."
My cooking triumphs
Cinnamon rolls, Teriyaki Chicken Stirfry, Pulled Pork, Falafel, Coffee Cake.
My cooking tragedies
The other day I overcooked a $10 steak and felt like a total idiot. I guess it was a learning experience. . .
