Ms. Black Thumb (in cooking)

I am not the greatest of cooks...there I said it and I do get teased for it at times. I tried, oh yes I have tried from the time I was a teen until now...is it impatience? Is cooking not part of my DNA?

I attempted to make my first homemade Stromboli last night.....it came up a tad dry and listless...sigh...nothing like what I had hoped it would be. However perseverance does pay off and I will delve into the kitchen once more to see if something resembling a Stromboli will come out...though my kid loved it (she is such a sweetheart)...I know what I am up against at work...(a coworker is going to be making one also to bring in tomorrow and her cooking always rocks).

I think I am getting by just like this blogger.
