Introduction
Hi! First of all, I literally want to thank you for getting my cookbook. I want to share a little bit about me and how I came up with this cookbook.
I love cooking so much that I always love to experiment. A lot of times, the final dish doesn't always go the way I imagined it to be in my head. But, at times, it also surprises me as to how good it can turn out.
This is how I came up with this cookbook. I've actually had my fair share of ups and downs with turkey recipes, but in the end, I have heard a lot of good constructive criticisms about the turkey dishes I have made, from friends, family, and acquaintances.
Now, that the book is finally done, I am proud to share this with you, and hopefully, it will make your holiday cooking preparations even better.
Happy stuffing and roasting!
