I come from a long line of great family cooks, somehow that gene didn't get passed on. I think it might have something with my problem of not wanting to follow instructions. Example- the recipe calls for 1 cup of chocolate chips, I would probably add 2 because I REALLY like chocolate chips. Well, I finally found a site that really slows me down and makes me follow each step (correctly). I'm admitting that I have fallen in love with The Pioneer Woman she breaks everything down WITH pictures! Its pretty much a no fail recipe. I get most my recipes from her or her sister site The Tasty Kitchen .
Sometimes I get this urge to freestyle in the kitchen and just start throwing things together. Last time that happened we ended up going and getting Chinese take out. My husband tries to encourage me to just stick with what I know, but I'm a housewife and I want to make new, fun, and exciting dishes.
Because we both have pretty busy schedules I try to cook at least 3 nights a week, and we have the leftovers for the rest of the week. I've been working with this system for about 2 months and so far its seems to be working!
