Do you ever enjoy something so much? That is how I feel about cooking. I can’t imagine what I would be doing instead if I didn’t have this passion for food. The taste testing, figuring what to add or take away. Not liking something, that does happen. But having the sense of a finding. This is the place I want to be at. In the kitchen, it might sound silly, but the kitchen is my happy place. My husband always jokes and says I’m making a mess for myself. I do not see it like that. I feel like I just made the greatest thing to eat. My family doesn’t seem to complain when they have home cooked meals every day, and deserts to eat. About four years ago I pulled a muscle in my shoulder really bad and could not use it for about two weeks. It never really felt better until about a month later. My husband has never said he missed my cooking ever! Well, I heard just those words after I wasn’t able to cook for those two weeks. All I could do was sit there and ice my shoulder, it was the worst feeling ever. It made me feel appreciated. Take out gets old real quick especially when my family is use to my cooking. I love trying to make different cuisines even if I have no clue. That is the challenge that I’m looking for. I hope you have fun using my recipes and following along.
