Cooking Do you like to cook, and better yet, do people think you can cook? It is amazing to me how many people actually can't cook, and by that I mean even make a box of mac 'n cheese.
What is your favorite dish to prepare? I can cook very well... I grew up in my grandmother's restaurant and learned from her and my mom. I just recently started enjoying it again. My favorite thing to make is Lasagna and pretty much any mexican dish. | |

Ex-Moderator | I like to cook, but I'm not that great yet. There are a few things I can make well, but now that I live alone, I don't cook as much as I used to. It's not as fun preparing meals for only one person. I make great eggs, fried rice, stir-fry, burritos, and I LOVE to make desserts. Nearly every pot-luck function I bring a dessert. Pink Lemonade ice cream cake, ginger-brandy cheesecake, trifles... yum! |

That's one thing I can't get down yet... desserts. I try and fail each time. They taste good, but they don't always look the best when I am done with them. The only desserts I can make well are apple pie and kolachies... if you count them as a dessert. | |

lol...Azure, I do love to cook as well... I am better at it when I have a recipe to follow tho...
I have a really good recipe for meatloaf that I like to make, and that I and others love to eat...or, so they tell me. It's a recipe I got from The Two Fat Ladies tv show on the Food Network, and I add my own little extras, and spices and seasonings... ...And, then I have another recipe for a very cheesy and meaty Lasagna that's lot of work to make, but fun, and it's so worth the effort...yum. | |

Meatloaf! You know what I do? I just put a bit of everything that I have in the refrigerator in it. Hot sauce, bbq sauce, salad dressing...whatever I have and it's always good! That has to be one of the quickest things to make... I really should make that sometime soon for the kids. I used to be a Food Network junkie, but I always missed their show. | |

I enjoy it, but only when it's for a group of people. Cooking for yourself kinda sucks.
I got quite good at it working in a youth shelter for 5 years. I had to be able to cook anything on the menu and I never got any complaints. In fact, people would often make special requests for some of my better dishes. I must admit, I make some unbeatable breakfast food - omelettes, french toast, pancakes, etc. And I'm good at just about any Italian or Asian dishes. A lot of times I'd be cooking for 10 to 20 people and I say, the more the merrier. | |

Do you cook together in the kitchen often? I think cooking together can be a wonderful experience that will lead to a hell of a lotta fun after you eat... heck, even while you are eating! I am waiting to experience all of that there... | |

I used to do all of my experimenting on Sunday... each meal would be an experiment. One of these days I'll get back into that. Part of the last job that I had I wrote recipes for cookbooks in which I had to modify the recipes of mine to make them low-fat for people who were overweight. That was fun experimenting with those. I would make the recipes up and then modify them. Sometimes it took two or three tries to get it right with the subsitutions, but that's the fun of it! | |
