I married the most amazing man last year who happens to love to cook. Because of this, I'm expanding on my "repetoire" of meatloaf, spaghetti and pot roast. I'm not what you'd call a good cook (timing is key, I've learned) but I do have the interest and am learning. I've had some flops, but also some successes which prompt me to try more recipes. My 23-year-old son also loves to cook and we both rely on All Recipes at least once or twice a week. It's our first and only choice of cooking websites. LOVE candy/cookies/bars or any sweets, but have to restrain myself from taste testing and end up giving most away rather than eat them here at home. My husband and I have both lost about 30 pounds this last year and started working out, so we now try to keep our cooking healthy and light. I make a mean pot roast! My tragedies are usually from forgetting to remove something from the oven on time. I get distracted or start chatting and space out the oven timer when it goes off. I've had things turn out "okay", but not the best. I made a crab/shrimp filling for phyllo shells as an appetizer for Thanksgiving and found it tasted MUCH better cold on crackers than it did baked in the shells (tasted "off" when baked). Live and learn!
