What was your best cooking compliment ever?

Troy, NY(Zone 5b)

My dad tasted my chocolate cake and told me that this was as close to his grandmother's anyone has ever come (okay not the ultimate praise but this cake was a family legend). Then he went on to say that I was like his grandmother, "she would throw a pinky in and taste something and know what it needed. You cook like that. You never measure you just know."

To have my dad tell me I was like his grandmother was like winning a Nobel Prize.

Oh and the time this guy I was dating got invited for dinner and never left. I still have to feed him everynight!
