I am a new-ish dad in my mid-thirties that originally learned to cook because my dad couldn’t, and if I wanted to eat something besides fast food or take-out, I had to make it myself. Fast forward to today where I actually enjoy cooking because, as I tell my wife, I would much rather make the mess than clean it up. I started out with basic recipes that I learned from grandma and evolved them during the various life stages I have been through since. I have always been the type to just throw stuff together and it just turns out great, but, if I am going to pass along how to cook to my kids, then I should start writing the recipes down.
