HAVE YOU EVER: Cooking Meme - basically whether you cook or not. I do. But I'm an intuitive cook, who doesn't have much in appliances.

1. Made bread from scratch?

Yes. (But not recently.)


2. Cooked fresh squash?

Yes (Spaghetti, Yellow, Zuccini, Butternut, and Acorn - Acorn is rather good.)

3. Made homemade soup?

Yes. Pumpkin, Chicken Noodle, Chicken, Leek/Onion/Turnip (or Root Vegetable soap)...

4. Fried chicken?

Yes, Gluten and Non-Gluten versions.

5. Made spaghetti sauce from scratch?

Yes (but I don't make the past from scratch - don't have the tools)

6. Made homemade rolls or cinnamon rolls?

No.
