I am not a cook. I know nothing about culinary sciences. I have a really short attention span and almost no ability to plan ahead. Combine that with the fact that I married a culinary genius and the fact that in the first 6 years of our marriage, I only cooked four real meals, and you end up with a pathetic, useless blob in the kitchen. However, as Nick has gone back to school and is now away or studying for all but 2 waking hours and much of my day is spent feeding children with insatiable appetites, I have had to learn to cook. And cook on a budget.
So, some things here may be pretty rudimentary for you more learned folks of the kitchen arena, but it's all new to me. This page is dedicated to those experiments relating to all things kitchen. I will update the links as I post new experiments. Please feel free to add comments of things you like me to try or anything you do that you have found particularly helpful.
