1. Do you cook regularly or does someone else cook for you?
My husband cooks most the time. He is WFH so by the time I get home from work dinner is on the table most nights. I probably only cook dinner once or twice a week.
2. Which are you better at making: sweet or savory foods?
Both - things like soups, casseroles, crock pot meals, eggs, scones, breads, desserts, etc.
3. If you had to work as a chef in a restaurant of your choice, which restaurant would best complement your current culinary skills?
Comfort foods
4. What is a cooking tip that you know, but other people generally aren’t aware of?
Don't have one.
