New Blogging subject, cooking

After my mother was diagnosed with breast cancer and began chemotherapy last spring, I started making dinner for my family and discovered how much I loved to cook. As I planned dinners and researched recipes, my new chore morphed into an activity I looked forward to. I wanted to become a better cook, so I began to study the art of cooking in depth through my senior project. I knew that my 11th grade AP English teacher was an excellent cook, so I asked her to be my advisor. Every week we prepare a dinner together. She has taught me to roll ground beef and spices into amazing meat balls and to mix fruits and vegetables into salads. Even now that my mother has recovered from chemotherapy, I still enjoy cooking dinner twice a week for my family.
