I started cooking & baking in 3rd grade, and used to bake daily up until I moved to Florida. I don't know if it's the heat or what, but now cooking is mostly something I have to do, not something I look forward to doing. Since finding this site, that is slowly changing! Now when I have time (gotta love a nappin baby..lol) I pull out ideas & recepies to make in big batches and freeze for my "cooking strike" days.
