Welcome!

Have you ever wondered how to bake?  Not just pop-a-pizza-in-and-set-the-timer deal, but really mixing ingredients, producing a dough, and baking a one-of-a-kind confection?
I have no patience to follow a recipe.  When I'm making a stir-fry, it doesn't matter that much.  But when I make a pizza, and I don't have the patience to pre-bake the crust, the center of the pie is a mess.
I never have the right ingredients.  My tablespoons and teaspoons both get measured in the palm of my hands.  And I will do anything in my power to use one fewer bowl than the instructions demand.
But my cookies are damn good.  Which gets me thinking I can bake without following that recipe to a T, right?
I'm about to find out!
