Cooking relaxes me. I find the concept of putting together food fascinating, and frustrating. Many of my recipes are off the cuff, and how I actually cook. However, whenever I follow a recipe, disaster almost always strikes. This is a blog about my cooking, both the yummy items, and the failures of my attempts.
I am currently a graduate student, getting a Masters in Social Work. I was born and raised in Texas, yet somehow ended up in Brooklyn. Food prices are high, though I try to find deals at my local store, at Amazon, and through a local grocery delivery service. (Ah, the life of a New Yorker, delivery is amazing!)
I love challenges, and I love learning about and trying new recipes, even if they turn out disastrous. Being exposed to new types of cooking, and cooking new cuisines, expands my off the cuff cooking techniques, which enables me to not get bored with home cooking.
Check out my Equipment page for an expanding list of the tools and fun things I have to work with. And, please, suggest something for me to cook!
Hi! I found you on the foodie blogroll and have been happily reading some of your posts.When I first started cooking,it was very stressful for me.I tried to follow different recipes, but they rarely turned out the way I hoped they would. Then I discovered foodblogs!learning to cook became so much easier, and my encounters in the kitchen are much, much better
Glad to come across your place in the foodieblogroll
