I have to drop the humble act here and say that I am a FABULOUS cook. I make things up as I go along and some recipes which we enjoyed tremendously are forever lost in the ethers because they came and went from my head that quickly - I don't write things down because they are supposed to be fleeting.
My husband dances with his feeties while he is sitting and eating my dinners. . .ah yes, the way to a man's heart is through his stomach! Unfortunately, we both have a bit too much stomach!
I think that cooking is a bit like any talent - sometimes it comes naturally, sometimes it is learned (like with recipes) but it takes practice to get it PERFECT!
By the way - I can't bake anything more complicated than chocolate chip cookies. My baked desserts are a nightmare. . .but thank goodness for that in many ways!
