I am entering for my mom. My fondest memories in the kitchen are with her. She not only passed on the skill of cooking and baking but also the love for the art. She did it to see the smiles on our faces… I am entering for her because she has Multiple Sclerosis. I now do most of the cooking in her house and freeze meals to make sure they are provided for. This last weekend I was at her home cooking and she was able to help with some of the chopping and peeling. It was great to see the smile on her face! It is rare for her to have enough energy to fix most of or an entire meal but she has passed on the love and passion… She is an amazing woman who has inspired many. I hope to one day be a mom just like her :)Christa T.christajtodd@yahoo.com

My mom influenced me the most in the kitchen. She taught me to fear no technique and to never worry that I couldn’t make it work. That brownies that were hard enough to use as a tray only meant that the next batch HAD to be better.

I want to win this prize for my wife! My wife is an amazing mother to our 3 year old son. Ever since we got married almost 9 years ago, we’ve enjoyed cooking in the kitchen together. I’ve often said we make a perfect pair! I love to cook and she loves to bake. I help with the meals and she supplies all the sweets!! Sarah deserves a gift package like this for Mother’s Day for loving me and my son so much.

My grandmother (my father’s mother) has influenced me a great deal, in and out of the kitchen. As a housewife in her era, she took a great deal of pride in the meals she prepared for her family. She was very budget-conscious, and accounted for each penny as she planned meals. I fondly remember as a child, though, that she would always have baked crips, baked breads, and other sweet treats for us when we visited. My favorite memory with her in the kitchen was actually the last time I will probably ever see her and help her cook, as she has since moved to a nursing home. I helped her make a roast pork loin, wax beans with bacon, and potatoes, asking how she did things, every step of the way. She misses being able to prepare meals for her family, it was a way of showing her love. She regularly tells me how much she loves my food blog. The kitchen and food connects us.

What a great contest! I have to give credit to Rachael Ray for influencing me more than any other woman in the kitchen. Her first cookbook was the first one I owned, and after trying a few recipes I realized that maybe I wasn’t a complete failure in the kitchen :)I’m also going to follow your blog and tweet about the giveaway!

The question I chose is: “What woman has influenced you the most in the kitchen, and why.” I would have to say my grandmother because after school every day that is where I went while Mom was at work. She taught me how to follow a recipe and how to create my own recipes. She was the most loving and caring person and a great cook. I share my love of the kitchen with others since she inspired me and I am hoping to write a cookbook showcasing her recipes in her memory.
Sarah says
My grandmother was really my rolemodel in the kitchen. I grew up around her because my mom and lived with my grandparents. She was always home baking cinnamon rolls, or cookies and cooking a big pot of potato soup.But my mother also had a hand in inspiring me with her homemade bread, now I can make bread almost better then her!

What a great contest! My mom is the woman who influenced me most in the kitchen. She’s great at whipping up something delicious with whatever’s on hand, and is always ready to welcome visitors into her home. She also made a rule when we were growing up that if one of us kids wanted to plan a meal and cook it, we didn’t have to help clean the kitchen that night. What an inspiration to start cooking! LOL I’d still rather cook than clean. 🙂

I have clear memories of cutting out sugar cookies and decorating them with my mom. I don’t think it was just for Christmas, I think we did them at every major holiday. I still enjoy it today, especially with my son!mthorpe12(at)yahoo(dot)com
