Hello, my name is Harry and I have been inspired to start this blog by some of my recent experiences in the kitchen. I will be honest with you, I have never really been much of a cook. However, all that changed when my granddaughter came to stay with me. She is a teenager who loves to cook and she insisted that old grandpa Harry joins her in the kitchen. She taught me how to prepare various dishes such as finger foods and dessert cakes. I really enjoyed learning to cook and since then I have been reading books about it and teaching myself.
