Have you ever

No
2. Cooked fresh squash?
Yes, Spaghetti, pumpkin, Tahitian and zucchini
3. Made homemade soup?
No
4. Fried chicken?
No, but baked it many times.
5. Made spaghetti sauce from scratch?
Yes
6. Made homemade rolls or cinnamon rolls?
No
7. Baked a cake from scratch?

9. Cooked a pot roast with all the veggies?
Yes.
10. Made chili from scratch?
A few times a year.
11. Made a meatloaf?
No. But I hate meatloaf
12. Made potato salad?
Yes, but not recently
13. Made mac/cheese from scratch?
No, but my mother always did. I'm not a big fan of mac & cheese. I'll eat it but don't understand why it's so popular among adults these days. It's great for kids who won't eat anything else, but adults ought to move on to healthier choices.
14. Made any pies from scratch?
Everything, but the crust. Apple, pumpkin, berry. Since my mother gave up on making her own crust long ago, I haven't felt the need.
15. Made sausage from scratch?
No. My dad worked in a butcher shop as a teenager. He always said if you knew what went into sausage you wouldn't eat it. I like sausage, so I never looked too hard at the ingredients.
16. Made fudge?
Fudge is a little too sweet for me, usually, so I never made it. I have made brownies.
17. Made cookies from scratch?
Yes. Oatmeal, chocolate chip, raisin, and a few others.
18. Cooked a pot of dried beans?
Well, as Shadowkat noticed you don't cook dry beans. Have I soaked dried beans over night then cooked them? Yes. several times.
19. Cooked a pot of greens?
Yes, if cabbage counts. I do like greens. I'd rather eat spinach raw if I buy it that way.
20. Made cornbread from scratch?
No. Not a huge fan of corn bread, but if others make it I'll eat it.
21. Made a pie dough from scratch?
No. see above re: pies
22. Cooked a whole turkey?
Once long ago. But haven't needed that much meat at once in ages.
23. Snapped green beans & cooked them?
Yes
24. Made mashed potatoes from scratch?
Yes

Yes, both.

33. Made baked beans?

34. Made ice cream from scratch?
No. Others in the family have done it, but I like the store-bought better.

Yes, again very long ago.
36. Zested an orange or lemon?
I'm sure I used orange zest, but don't remember about lemon.
37. Made grits from scratch?
Not a fan of grits. Wouldn't make them if I knew how.
38. Made an omelet?
Yes. I eat more omelets for lunch, than fried eggs for breakfast.
39. Made homemade pizza?
Yes, including homemade crust from a recipe from ATPo cooks.
40. Lived in a house without a dishwasher?
My whole life till I retired. Glad I don't have to do them by hand anymore.
