Hear from the popular blogs founder, Rachel Crawford as she explains how she found the sort of cooking that inspired Made Weekly. For those of you who have burned more than an eyebrow off in the process of cooking your mom’s favorite recipe, this show’s for you. Rachel gives you the run down so you don’t burn the house down.

"You need a willingness to fail a few times and experiment. The biggest disappointment is going through some elabore recipes you found and then spending two hours on it and realizing it doesn't taste like anything." [09:00]

"I'm ADD with my cooking - I'm not interested in cooking the same thing every day." [21:30]
