Recently, I have been trying to improve my skills in the kitchen. Last week, I found a picture of my great aunt's family mac & cheese recipe that I hadn't made in over a year. It is by far the best mac & cheese recipe in the world and I have not met one person who doesn't agree with that statement. Although it is fun to make, it took me quite a long time and a lot of work grating cheese to prep all of the ingredients, cook the pasta, make the sauce, and bake all of it in the oven. However, it is worth any amount of time to make the food of gods and it turned out better than any of the previous times I had made it. Today, I wanted to try cooking something else. This time, I would be baking some sugar cookies with the help of my girlfriend. Since neither of us had made them by ourselves before, we went through some recipes and picked out one that looked good and pretty straightforward. We got to work prepping and getting all of the ingredients that we needed. It was nice to have someone else to cook with since we could each work on prepping different ingredients and help each other. While I cracked the eggs, she worked on measuring out the sugar and flour. After getting the dough ready and onto the pan we put them in the oven. The first batch was pretty good but like always the second batch was better. After they came out of the oven, we put homemade almond icing that we had made on one batch. Unfortunately, we went through them pretty quickly. I guess more help when cooking means less food when you're done.
