Cooking and Baking Adventures!

One of the things I am enjoying most about being a house wife, okay I work and do school as well,  so I am not just a housewife, ANYWAYS, I discovered I love to cook! I have picked up a lot of helpful tricks in these few short months, combined with my previous knowledge. I never considered myself a good from scratch cook, but I think it will come with time. I already experiment with my recipes a tad, and so far, Adam hasn't dislike anything I've made! In fact, I was complimented to be better at some things than his Mom. Shhhhh, don't tell her please! I respect her greatly, and there are still so many things I can learn from here. Though I did take a bit of pride in his lavish compliment. :) My latest accomplishment was my first apple pie! We know the man who owns Hemming's orchard in Bennington, and he lets us have free access to the drops, which most of the time are perfectly good apples that are really ripe! So basically we have a limited supply of apples, and I needed to start some apple recipes. Pie was a first attempt....and it was a success! Adam loved it! And presentation wasn't half bad either if I do say so myself. ;) Going to try making some more maybe on Thursday, for our parents. Then maybe I will venture on to cobbler, cakes, and other delicacies! Pictures to come....
