Well, following recipes is how you start 😛
I used to follow them pretty strictly, but now I generally go by "Hmmm, that looks about right" for measuring things out and experiment around with spices and stuff a lot. Which usually turns out well.
However, that also means that if people do ask how I made something, I can't actually give a recipe or anything...😛
Baking is the only thing where I really stay strict with a recipe, because you really have to...and even then I'll sometimes experiment a bit. For example, I discovered that the best damn sugar cookies I've ever had, I made by substituting a bit of the regular sugar with powdered...mmmm turned out great.

Good news Scythe, I've got a list of dinners for the next month. Over half of them, I'm going to insist on cooking myself, because my sister is a terrible cook. I will take photos of the ones I will be proud of. shock
I'm hoping it'll be all of them. I don't exactly believe in a badly cooked meal. If enough effort is put into cooking it, someone on this green earth would eat it, haha. I'll look forward to it man.

The only problem is, I have no camera except for my webcam, so the images won't be the greatest.
