Baking/cooking impaired?

Hahaha, I am a really awful cook. If you want to see my family leave in a hurry, just have me offer to cook them dinner.

My first dog (Peaches) would not eat anything I cooked. I would put left-overs in her bowl, and she would sniff it and walk away.

Now, you know that is pretty bad.

I am alright with baking though (I make good chocolate chip cookies

).

I can cook and bake. It just kinda comes naturally to me and the more I do it the more creative I find I can be. I made a chicken and mushroom casserole last night and I just made it up as I went along. LOL

I never really used to like cooking but now that I am with my husband and he likes everything I can experiment. when I was living with my dad it was spaghetti, fried egg sandwiches, hamburger gravy, or hamburgers and fries LOL. My dad doesn't like anything "new". With my husband he eats all veggies and likes a wide variety of foods. I think I am pickier than he is. so now it is exciting to cook new meals.

I have been baking for years. used to bake with my mom when I was a kid. Can't wait to make christmas cookies lol.

However, our friend marjie can't cook ANYTHING. she has top of the line cookware and everything you could imagine but she couldn't cook grilled cheese lol.

I am good at both... but I am better at baking.
Pumpkin Cheesecake, Cream cheese pound cake, Carmel Pecan pie... ohhh!

I have always loved to bake and cook. Everyone says I am very good too. I have not cooked lately though. Where I now live, I don't have my own kitchen. Everyone living here eats in a common dining room.

I like to cook but not in the summer.

That is hubby's season to cook (if you can call lighting the grill and turning some meat over once in a while cooking

). By the time fall comes I am ready to begin cooking again. Now that we are due for some cooler weather I will bring the cookbook down off the shelf.

I can bake, but I can't cook. Figure that one.

I can bake and I can also cook as long as it doesn't involve the barbeque.

I do all the cooking in our house. Stuart cooks only if it involves fire and he's rarely home to do even that. I bought a new bbq this year that is easy to light so I don't have to wait for him. Our old one was an explosion waiting to happen. I refused to touch it!

I love to bake. I make the best banana-chip muffins ever! I really enjoy making bread when I have time.

I love making big holiday meals and feeding friends!

I am a slob in the kitchen. I'm messy in general. The kitchen is no different! We have plans to renovate our kitchen in a couple years. I am knocking out a wall and adding way more cupboard space--so I can spread the mess out more!
