Let’s Get Cooking

  • Posted on February 2, 2010 at 22:15

I got a package in the mail today that I am SOOO excited about.

I have always loved cooking but I have never really experimented with it.  I have just made what I was taught growing up.  The last year, I have tried spreading my wings but I don’t really know where to begin.  Several years ago Chris and I started watching America’s Test Kitchen on PBS.  They try different recipes hundreds of times to figure out what works best and then they share the recipe with us.  The cookbook I got today has every recipe they have done in their 10 seasons of the show.  Its over 650 recipes! I am looking forward to trying every single one of them out.  The only problem is, there is so much stuff I need for my kitchen.  I want a dutch oven, new pots and pans, a food processor, a blender, a stand mixer and SO much more.  I have a set of pots and pans but I’m being very picky in the fact that a want a stainless steel set.  Other than pots and pans a few baking sheets I have nothing.  Not even a stinking cooling rack.  I have decided  I will buy things gradually and then ask for the bigger stuff for Christmas, birthday, ect.  If you have any extra stuff you want to donate or if you want to send money to my kitchen fund, I would cook you an amazing dinner as a thank you.

I don’t think you realize how excited I am about this.  Stay tuned for pictures of the meals I create!
