The Plan...

 Aloha! 

So I realised in my first post I didn't actually say what my plan was, how I would reach my goal, how I would embark on my quest to become a confident cook!

Each week ill be trying out a new recipe I've never tried before...just 1... With a hectic schedule and still not a great LOVE of cooking... For now this is what I can cope with! But who knows, I may post more. 

Usually I'll be trying out recipes for dinners, but I might have a go at baking.... Eek! That thought fills me  with fear. 

I work as a nanny for twins, boy and girl very soon to be 4 years old- and I successfully made some quite fancy chocolate rice crispie/cornflake/Cheerios cakes WITH sprinkles! They were delish :) 

                             An indication of my current 'baking' ability!

So I'll post before and after pics...haha! I'll post links to recipes or book references. 

Even as I'm writing this I'm thinking aaaaaaahhhhhhh can I keep it up?

I hope so!!

Here's a little something about me!

So I'm Sarah...more commonly known as Sez, Sezzy, Sezzy woo, woodle, poodle.... (my family and friends are not the most imaginative people obviously!) So you use whatever takes your fancy...I'll be signing off as Sez :D

I've been thinking about starting a blog for a while now... just not got round to it....as a self-confessed procrastinator I've been too worried I just wouldn't keep up with it. So I apologise in advance if this happens! But I'm starting up this blog as I'm on a bit of a quest myself, so hopefully this will keep me motivated to keep going with my blog!

A twenty-something's quest to become a confident cook.

....  not a professional... literally just VERY BASIC COOKING SKILLS. Stuff normal human beings know by the time they are at the very latest 15, 16? Like boiling an egg? How long to make it hard-boiled? soft-boiled? How do you stop pasta from boiling over- ALL THE TIME! Please say its not just me.

a food related pic of me and my hub!

Since getting married about a year ago.. .. I have had to make myself learn a few things... so I have about 4 meals that I can actually cook successfully! Every time! With no burnt pans, melted spoon handles, major spillages, and a few I don't even have to look at the recipe... dead chuffed :D Alas I would like to become a bit more..varied with my skills.. as those 4 set meals are becoming a bit tedious to eat.


BIG NEWS: I fried my first egg on thursday... the hub was pleased!

Let the cooking commence!

Love Sez :D xxx
