"I cook every day, and I bake for fun at least once a week."
How I did it: I moved in with my boyfriend, he is a bit lazy and doesn't have much experience in cooking, but I will teach him. Anyway, I've been cooking our tea since I moved in, and it's been great, we have a meal plan which makes it easier, and we're eating healthy foods!
Baking is something I love doing, and I will try any recipe at least once. It's more of a trial in Sweden though, as my recipe books are English, and so we're having to find equivalents for ingredients mentioned in the books. I am adapting, though :)
Lessons & tips: Patience. Cooking is not a science, it's an art, you taste, you change, you taste, you add, little by little you get a really tasty meal. And why are people so afraid of herbs? See what ones you have, and usually the packet tells you what the herbs goes well with.
Resources: Recipe books, I lean away from recipes with fancy ingredients, and long methods. One is okay, but not both. Sesame oil is great for stir-fry's.
