My Cooking Background

As a kid, I always enjoyed being in the kitchen and helping my mom cook. No matter what she was making for dinner, I wanted to be her "helper". As I've grown up some, I have started to cook more on my own. I recently realized it is something I really love to do. In college I have had the opportunity to learn more on my own and try different recipes. Most of the skills I have I learned from my mom, grandma, and of course the Food Network. Whether I'm cooking for myself or family and friends I found that cooking truly makes me happy.
