What's Cooking?
Welcome, welcome. It's good to have you back for another visit. I hope you are keeping well and are up for another of Toni Taddeo's Tuesday 4 questions.
Could we discuss cooking and kitchens today?
1.How did you learn to cook? My mother was born on a dairy farm back in the 1920’s. I say that to demonstrate that she learned from a wonderful country cook, my grandmother!Everyone said momma was the best cook in the family of 6 sisters. She taught me how to cook. I ,also, really enjoyed learning new techniques in my home economic classes.
2. Do you have a favorite cookbook? I always go first to my red and white checked Home and Garden cookbook I received in 1971 from my student teaching class. Over the years, I collected all sorts of cookbooks… to make delicious quiche, scones and other tea party delights, fabulous soups, salads, and pastries. Now being on my WW diet, I use diet books like WW recipe books and Skinnytaste.
3.What is your cooking specialty? I really love cooking Chinese dinners. In fact , when I want to cook a quickie meal, I can cook up my favorite Szechuan chicken and veggie supper. I can have it on the table in under 20 minutes.
4. Is your kitchen well suited for you and if not how would you improve it?we redid our kitchen about 8 years ago. Wow those years went by fast! And it is just like I like it!
I only got one year of Home Ec. I wish more would have been available. It seems like there were so many other things we had to take and I took a love of music (choir) classes...that is probably why I didn't have as much Home Ec. I sure do love singing though.
ReplyDeleteMy mom and Grandma were the really good country cooks too. That is the best food. Loved your answers! Have a nice week. ♥

I enjoyed your comments. Sounds like you are a good cook.
ReplyDeleteMy husband does most of our cooking (he is retired), he cooks better
than I do.
Time is flying by it seems. We had 6 years of home ec in our school from 7th to 12th with sewing, cooking and home management. It was great. I am so glad we had that.
