I live in LA County with my boyfriend and we both work and go to school. I really enjoy cooking meals for us and trying new things. My aim is to make him enjoy all the same foods I do :P I am into music, fashion, exercise, cooking, healthy lifestyles, and learning.
My favorite things to cook
I love to cook just about anything. I enjoy cooking dinners the most, and I usually cook typical American cuisine, e.g. salads, seafood, casseroles, pastas, grilling, this and that, etcetera, but occasionally I try something different or ethnic to keep it from becoming boring. I haven't had too much experience baking and I'm kind of apprehensive to begin trying! Baking definitely has more potential for disaster because you have to get the recipe and the cooking/baking just right. I would like to try nicely-presented dishes or really fancy cuisine, just for fun! **Update: I've tried baking and I LOVE it.
My favorite family cooking traditions
I love the holidays!!! All holidays!
My cooking triumphs
I've found that cooking is so much easier than it seems, but it just takes practice! Once you start to actually learn and taste the differences between the flavors you add to dishes, it's all downhill from there!
My cooking tragedies
Anything I made when I began cooking, and some experimental dishes.
