I could never understand people who say “I can’t cook” or who were always impressed when I would tell them that I almost always cook homemade meals and usually bake from scratch.

Believe it or not, making food from scratch really isn’t that hard! I mean, we’re not talkin’ milking-the-cow-and-growing-the-wheat from scratch. But I think all it takes is a basic knowledge of cooking terms (do you know what simmer means? simma down, now!), the right tools, and the ability to follow directions.

Trust me… I’m not a good cook. I just have good recipes. Thanks mom!
