Hi everybody
I just thought I'd introduce myself.

I'm 19 and love cooking. I don't have that in common with anyone around so i thought i'd try and make some friends online.

Hi Manar,

Welcome to the site! We're glad you're here!

I hope you'll find that we're a fun, friendly and interesting group who come from all walks of life, many regions and all levels of cooking experience. We're a diverse crowd who enjoy a pretty tight community here.

Please share more about yourself! Are you a student? Do you work? Do you have enough cooking interest to pursue it as a career- or do you have other interests/gifts where work is concerned? I myself am 41 and worked in kitchens for over 25 years- since I was 14. I was raised in the rural mid-west, ended up traveling to Chicago, New Orleans, Seattle then Alaska for work. Now I'm back home in central Illinois near family again.

All of us here love eating and cooking and we gather here to share and laugh! We look forward to visiting with you often and we're sure you'll find this a warm corner of the web to settle in to! smiles- kevin (chubbyalaskagriz)

You guys answer quick
I live in Egypt but i have a dutch mother.I'm studying English lit. because i figured i wouldn't have to study much and i could concentrate on cooking. I specialize in baking cakes but iI'll give any recipe a shot.
I'm definitely thinking about pursuing it as a career.
