About this Cook
I am a nurse and have 3 children, 2 grown and one at home. Love to cook, it seems to be the center of the party and I am most comfortable there.
My favorite things to cook
thai food, desserts, appetizers, really anything that sounds good.
My favorite family cooking traditions
Holiday cooking is where it all started, I put on a huge production. It usually takes place in the evening hours. If my family has other commitments, we do a day or two later! Holidays are a season, not a day.
My cooking triumphs
A thai dinner that I stumbled on in Allrecipes.com, wasn't sure if anyone would like it, and it was a hit!
My cooking tragedies
I am still adjusting to cooking in ALTITUDE. It is harder than I thought. Lot's of adjustments. Still haven't figured out how to bake here. Did have an Angel Food Cake fall just last week. Didn't realize that could still happen.

Quinoa and Black Beans
First time trying quinoa, it was awesome! I added fresh squeezed lime juice (to taste), next time I will try all fresh ~ without sauteing onions & garlic, maybe add tomato...the possibilities are endless!!
