The Chef

Family Cooking - No, I'm not listed

It's so wonderful to see you (well, not literally - but I will). Thank for visiting my site. I really want to take you on a journey to find that cooking can be quick, fun, healthy, and just all around good for you.

I'm a budding chef and I've "almost" alway's loved to cook. When I was a teen-ager, my mother just let me have free reign in the kitchen - much to her dismay. It wasn't because I wasn't a good cook, it was because if I didn't like something turned out, I through the whole thing away. Ma would have the unfortunate non-pleasure of seeing her hard-earned groceries in the garbage. Sorry Ma.

 

Well, at any rate, it all paid off because after a career in office administration and management, I decided that I wanted to go back to school to become a chef. So, now, I'm presently a cook with 4 years of experience. However, any one who works for anyone knows how that goes. Many jobs don't always want to take the opinions/suggestions of the workers or promote from within. So I decided instead of try to get my employers to see my value and listen to me, I can do this myself.

 

Additionally, being a working wife w/children, I don't always have time to cook when I come home from work. While my husband's a good cook himself, alot of times whenever he has to do it meals are quick, fast, and in a hurry - and salty (you know, hot dogs, burgers, Walmart pizza). And would you believe that he has elevated blood pressure? Seriously? So yes, ladies (and men), I had to get back into the kitchen to help my family out. But the meals had to be quick.

 

So I figured, if I went through this drama, so was others. So here we are.

Let's help liberate some moms by teaching the children how to cook. Let's learn that cooking doesn't have to be a dreaded task but fun as we some up with several menu creations. Let's read some mystery books and enjoy the fruit our our labors.
