I like to cook. But, just as I enjoy planning a vacation almost as much as the actual trip, browsing for new recipes is half the fun of cooking. I suppose I love to bake the best...especially muffins which I often make ahead & keep in the freezer. One pot meals are great, especially soup which I think is the ultimate comfort food Not very creative here - of course the usual baking of each family member's favorite cake or pie for birthdays. If you asked my kids what their favorite family cooking tradition/event is I think they would say that it's when their dad makes biscuits and gravy for them on Christmas morning. That would probably be when I finally stopped killing anything made with yeast! There have been many (mostly minor) and there will be more! 'Nuf said!
