How I got my passion for baking!

I grew up like most traditional families in the south, very conservative. I have 2 sisters and 2 brothers. The girls in my family were responsible for cooking and cleaning while the boys in my family really didn't do much. So when I hit my teen years I went hardcore Liberal, I was a strong feminist. I let my sister do all of the cooking and basically refused to learn when I came of age to be taught. However, when I was 15 my Mawmaw got very sick and none of the other girls were there to learn how to bake for the parties (I'm the youngest girl), so it was thrown on me. The second I put my hands into the dough I fell in love, I just wanted to bake all of the time. I spent that whole summer (other than 2 weeks spent at band camp) learning how to bake cakes, pies, cookies, etc... too this day I still cannot get enough of it!!
