My blog is all about mom's home cooking and sharing recipes with other bloggers. Since my mom's been gone I cook a lot of her food. She used to cook without measuring the ingredients and that's how she taught me, so it's a bit hard for me to write her recipes, so I've been trying to measure as a cook. So far I have succeeded by measuring the ingredients just right so it can taste the same as hers... Thanks and happy browsing.
