“Cooking is like love; it should be entered into with abandon or not at all” -Harriet Van Horne


Have you ever forgotten the eggs in a recipe? Or how about put in baking soda when it called for baking powder? Put too much water or oil in a batter, forgotten to grease a cooking sheet, or put a dish in the oven without preheating?

These things are going to happen occasionally, but the beautiful thing and hard part about cooking is that no one dish ever turns out the same. You can cook a recipe a thousand times and still some little part of it will be different.

So next time think about adding a little something too it. Needs a little sweetness? Add some sugar. Want more flavor? Pick your spice. Don't be afraid to experiment.

You might just discover your epicurean side too.
