Bucket List

I am so bored of the same old cookies, cakes and bars recipes I make all the time.  But I am sort of afraid of the kitchen and trying things I don't know how to do.  The other day, I actually made an apple pie with a lattice crust.  It sort of gave me hope that I could maybe make some of those hard "desserts" that I have always shied away from because I didn't know how, or didn't have the pan, etc.

 


I decided to expand my cooking repertoire through a cooking bucket list.  I got the idea from here - although I am going to start small and only try a few things:

1.  Lemon merige pie
2.  Creme puffs
3. Creme brulee
4. Carmels
5.  Carmel apples
6.  cheesecake
7.  pumpkin roll
8. Flourless chocolate cake

I notice all of these are sweets - maybe someday I will make a bucket list for savory food...it is just not that interesting for me to make that kind of stuff.

Does anyone else have a bucket list?  Or any tips on how to accomplish mine?
