I learned to cook a little bit from before I left home, and after that it was mostly trial and error, following recipes, and observing others. My dear mum gave me a good basic cookbook to take with me, I consulted that a lot. I think I still have it somewhere!

Thank you for all your websites, I loved it!! I look at foodgawker often but thank you for the other links.

and

I enjoyed hearing about where you all learned to cook-- what amazing stories and memories.

So tonight my folks are coming over for dinner and I'm making Honey Mustard Thyme Chicken breasts, roasted sweet potatoes w/ garlic/thyme, green beans. (and polenta with carrots/spinach for my mom).

Gotta get a move on-- start to dust and other things. Enjoy your resting day --
