I LOVE to cook and I'm awesome at it (I can say that because it is absolutely true
)
I went to culinary school many many moons ago (I was so serious about becoming a chef I applied to and was accepted into Johnson & Wales University in Rhode Island and CIA in NYC, but I choose a smaller more country school) and although I found that cooking in a commercial kitchen was not for me, I LOVE cooking & baking at home.
I am also awesome at scratch cakes (even vegan) and cake decorating. I've made quite a few cakes for baby showers, birthdays, and for fun. I'm also a total geek & take pics of everything I create.
My cookies will make you swoon!
Friends still beg me for recipes for my Christmas candies even 15 years after they've eaten them. Every Christmas I make peanut butter balls (buck eyes), chocolate covered cherries, homemade toffee, cut-out cookies, peanut brittle, peppermint patties, rum balls and so many other tasty treats.
I think I'm going to have to start handing my treats out at appointments so that I stop eating it all!
Sorry, I got long-winded. I not only found a new pumpkin pie vodka that I've put away liberally today, I also get really excited about cooking & food.
