Greetings from Texas

[herbgrower]

Hello everyone,
I am a 49(soon to be 50) yr old nurse from Texas.I have been cooking since I was 6.Well my mother let me help with a box cake mix and I poured my share into a mini loaf pan and colored it with blue food coloring for my daddy.(he ate it all)
Fortunately I've graduated from the box to scratch.
Anyway I was happy to find this forum. I love to cook and grow my own herbs to use in my cooking.
I know I will learn alot and look forward to "cooking"with everyone.

Hello herbgrower and welcome to Chef Talk. We have something in common: my first baking effort was a yellow cake baked in a "toy" pan (mine was round). I plasted it with blue frosting and wrote "Happy Birthday Daddy" in orange icing. Dad ate every bite. His mouth was still blue-tinged the next day.

I hope you enjoy being part of this community and contributing to the site, too. Do you also dry or otherwise preserve your herbs?

Welcome!
Mezzaluna
