Thank you so much for making all these recipes available online. Now I won't have to worry about how my food is going to come out or would taste like just because I got the exact measurement on all of them. Of course we all have different taste bud, we'll just add add/decrease an ingredient here and there according to our taste. It's always nice to being able to cook for your family and enjoying the meal together. It's not always fun to eat out especially with the high cost of gas. Thanks again. God bless.
