I'm just a 17 year old guy with a slightly disturbing obsession with food: just call me a foodie. I always had an inkling for cooking, due to the fact I would watch Food Network almost daily since I was 6. I like trying new things and broadening my horizon, who knows, one day I could be the next Iron Chef. Pasta... pasta... and more pasta. Pasta is like a blank canvas, you can create anything. It's definitely my favorite thing to cook. Wings, Sicilian pizza, and shrimp dishes are some of my other favorites, also. I have a mostly northern family, so we love our lima beans and cornbread. Lima beans, slow cooked in ham hocks, and broth... with a buttered cornbread on the side. WINNING! FRESH pasta, and ravioli... a task that seemed difficult but proved to be the complete opposite. I even impressed myself when I won a steak competition between my big sis and I! I made an awesome T-Bone steak, seasoned with pepper and sea salt with butter on top. Delicious; and I haven't even started to talk about my smoked ribs. I tried making creme brulee one day... sadly, it was a disaster; but I will avail!
