When my brother and i were young, our mom taught us how to cook and bake, she was a stay at home mom and enjoyed cooking and especially baking during the holidays. she's been gone now some 7 years and every year since she's passed i carry on the tradition of baking. the snicker doodle cookies are in the oven,bananna and zucchini bread,along with apple and pumpkin pies all will be prepared by yours truly before tomorrow's dinner.for those of you who are fortunate to still have your mom's,hug them tight.Merry Christmas to each and everyone one of you and never let those holiday traditions die.

Merry Christmas to you also.

My mother loved to bake. In fact I never ate store bought bread until I went to the school lunch programs and wondered who would have made their bread taste like that? And when she was alive, the house was always filled with fresh bread smell, pies, cookies, you name it. I do miss that. Although my waist line does not.

hey builder the wimmins are supposed to do that! Thats why they have smaller feet, so they can get closer to the stove and sink.

I have no issues with that, even with size 13's. i have learned to adapt lol! i also cook most holidays and throughout the year, it's something i learned to enjoy!

Also note that at least 80% of profesional chefs are men.

yeah but many of that 80% are french soooo....
