This is a dedicated place to talk about special interests. Thanks for joining so early in this community's journey. I'm hoping to foster a welcoming, wholesome place.

Right now, I'm hyperfixated on cooking (hence my username), the fediverse, and maybe a couple blossoming interests. In the next little while, I will be sharing what I do for those interests, and I hope you'll share your interests too!

What sort of things brought you to cooking?

Honestly it was kind of desperation. It was really hard to accommodate my family's dietary restrictions with the way I used to eat, so I started learning how to make some basic dishes. I realized I really enjoyed being in the kitchen, so I spent hours upon hours watching cooking shows, reading cookbooks, and trying new recipes.
