Do you remember the first thing your mom taught you how to cook?

That was a question that Giant Eagle posted on Facebook today.

Interesting to think about because I get to remember what a wonderful cook my mom was. I'm not sure, but I’m guessing it was either beanie weenies (sliced hot dogs, a little butter, covered with canned baked beans,  or a white sauce. I watched how she made pies, although I don’t think I made many while I was still at home.  She was the best at pies, so there really was no point. Mom always overcooked the beef roast, however.  Vegetables when we were growing up was from home canning.  My dad was a bit fussy—he really didn’t want anyone’s cooking but hers.
