I never used to cook until I got to college and met my now husband. When we were dating he would cook dinners all the time and I thought that was great because I was living on string cheese and box pizzas. He started teaching me to cook, and now that we've been married a year and a half, I do almost all the cooking. I love it! I have a lot of fun making dinner every night. It's probably my favorite part of the day. I like food! It's so cool to me to start out with all these seperate ingredients and put them together in just the right way and come out with something new. I like trying new recipes and feeling confident enough to tweak them and make them my own. Dinner rolls. I used to be so scared of making them, but now they are one of my favorite things to make because I know what I'm doing and they turn out great and my husband and I can't stop eating them. Also, anything that I've never tried before that turns out great, my latest triumphs being chili, stew, and white chocolate chip macadamia nut cookies. Fortunately I haven't completely bombed anything yet (knock on wood) but I'm really hard on myself when something isn't as good as I was expecting. The last few times that happened was with banana bread, oatmeal cookies, and swedish meatballs. I thought the meatballs were really hard because you can't really taste them as you're making them, you have to wait until they're cooked. I guess I'll just have to keep making them to get them just right.
