<br>I am a college student in Minnesota. I love to cook, but I have only a small budget and not a lot of time or resources to cook. Plus, I usually only cook for myself, my boyfriend, or one or two friends so finding small recipes is a challenge. I cannot wait until I one day have a small family to feed and can experiment with different ingredients and flavors.
