    cause there just isnt enough food threads, especially when it's one of my biggest passions in life:D

    i'm making homemade gnocchi, my first time ever!! i usually just buy it, but apparently it doesnt exist in this town so i've had to take on this tedious endeavor myself....should be fun.

    who here loves to cook?

    what dishes do you like brag about?

    Gnocchi? WTF is that?

    I don't really care for cooking, but I can.

    I make a mean omelet. We used to call it the "Heart Attack Omelet" if that's any indication of how f'n awesome it was.....

    i enjoy cooking. but i always experiment with different foods "10 in 1" style. :D
    i don`t follow recipes, i made my own. and sometimes they really are tasty!

    btw i love spaghetti with a lot of butter and green apples, oranges and pine apple in `em. :D (i usually put cinnamon too if i have )

    I enjoy cooking and do most of it at my house. I am no pro but I do a pretty darn good job.

    i volunteer to be your house husband:D

    you can pursue your dreams. i will pursue mine (i.e. staying at home, making you a hot breakfast every morning and having a hot dinner waiting for your return every evening)

    i'll even clean and pick kids up from school and stuff. but at a certain time of day, i have to be allowed to watch my stories:toetap05:

    yeah you should try it, it is a good combination. but not with all fruits. strawberries just don`t fit.
    and when there are fruits i hate to put sous..i just put really a LOT of butter and different spices.

    lol, nesta!!!

    My dream (other than my career) is to be a housewife/stay at home mom. I can bake a mean apple pie, and all the other houswwifey stuff, but I hate cooking!!! Its my downfall. Perhaps we can have a chef.
