Bitchin' in the Kitchen
Yep, that's what our kids call it.
We call it "cooking together" but I must admit, sometimes the "bitchin'" factors in.
He's a fly by the seat of your pants kind of cook, having grown up in his Dad's diner back in the 1950's and then cooking in the Navy. I grew up learning to cook with my Mom's Betty Crocker cookbook.
I can cook a mean pot of soup if I have a recipe to follow. He can open the refrigerator, look at what's available and concoct a new and awesome soup everytime!
I always make the recipe exactly as written. Then I have a place to start, and tweak it the next time around. He can read a recipe and know what's wrong with it from the get go.
Check back here often to read of our adventures in the kitchen....'cause we really are "Bitchin'" cooks!
About Me
- Susan
- I was born in the Redwood Country of Northern California. An honor student in high school, I turned down a full tuition scholarship to Humboldt State University to marry at age seventeen and go on to have three children in the next five years. I’ve never forgotten that starry-eyed girl who dreamed of becoming a newspaper journalist. I settled for an AA in Sociology and a minor in Business from College of the Redwoods and eventually found a career in telecom. Starting as a telephone operator and working my way up to a management position in purchasing with a large independent telephone company, I assumed I would work there until I retired or was found slumped over dead in my office chair. Life, however, often takes you on paths you never dreamed you’d travel. My husband had a stroke in 2005 and we found ourselves becoming a multi-generational family, moving 160 miles away and in with our younger son, his wife and two grandchildren.
