i love to cook. making a mess and coming up with something tasty is my idea of a good time. however, there are a few basic things that i can't seem to get down... case in point: poaching an egg. smitten kitchen is one of my favorite blogs for conjuring up something yum and she also gives the best tips. After going back through the archives for way too long i found a great how-to for poaching eggs. and lo and behold, it works! if you enjoy cooking you'll definitely want to check out smitten kitchen. trust me... you'll be enthralled for hours!
