A microbiologist whom dreams of becoming a pastry chef and owning her own chic bakery one day. Desserts are by far my most favorite things to cook, and most experienced dishes. my mom's orange jello salad, my brother and I still sneak into it the night before Thanksgiving. Now that we are adults we've finely mastered a way to smooth out the top after we dip in so we don't get caught most the time. Cheesecakes. I tried a few food network recipes a couple days in a row... all of them came out horrible- barely editable by anyone other than Kenya(the dog). I decided from then on to stick with allrecipes that have been tested and prepared by those of us who have a normal taste in food.
