How A Cook Was Born

This is the beginning of how my love of spending time in the kitchen has came to be. Growing up I was the youngest of 7 children. My mother tried to teach us how to cook but my oldest sister and youngest brother took in most of the advice. I was more interested in what was going on in my life at the time then learning how to feed people. Growing up I for some reason never thought I would get married let alone have 5 children. I have now been married for a little over 21 years. After our second child was born I started watching a PBS show called "Cooking at the Academy" . It started me getting interesting in cooking. I could cook before but to be honest with you nothing that I would call truly yummy. So I bought a cook book that was advertised on the show.
This was my very first cookbook. And now I have shelves of cookbooks and notebooks of recipes to try or ones that have been tried. I love to cook and bake. I would say my favorite is the goodies to make! I would have to say I have come along way and learn more as I try new recipes.
I will post recipes as they are asked for or as I try them out. My love for cooking has grown into a passion. I love to feed people and to have them truly feel full and good after they have eaten. Geniet van uw voedsel (enjoy your food) , Bobbi Jo
