A college student who is a history education major with a literature and a theatre minor. I love anime, acting, my saxophone and singing. Cooking is a fun pasttime with great rewards.
My favorite things to cook
I love to cook stuffed cabbage using my grandmothers recipe and homemade chicken noodle soup. I am also trying out new recipes from here whenever I can.
My favorite family cooking traditions
My mother and I do all the holiday cooking including a traditional Norwegian Christmas Eve diner for the whole family.
My cooking triumphs
Everytime I try something new and it works out great. The almost stuffed peppers was just one of those great successes.
My cooking tragedies
I haven't had any real tragedies that I can remember, so I'm thankful for that.

Cider Cheese Fondue
I made this for a halloween party and it was a huge success. The vegitarians there were so happy to see it. Nothing survived for the next day. I used a bottle of hard apple cider and cheap cheddar cheese. Next time I will get a better quality cheddar and I'm sure it will be even better! I'm making this again in the near future. It is a great fall dish!

Creamy Rice Pudding
Really really good. I used a 12 oz can of evaporated milk for the cooking and also decided to mix the vanilla in with the egg and milk mixture. One less step that way. It rivals the diner's rice pudding that I get cravings for.

Peanutty Beef Skewers
I need to start this with I COULD NOT GIVE THIS ENOUGH STARS!!! It deserves at least 10. That being said...I saw this recipe a few years ago and finally got around to trying it. I really wish I hadn't waited, it was soooooo amazingly good!!!!! I used chunky peanut butter and added a little bit of fresh minced ginger, but otherwise followed the marinade to a tee. However, I marinated single small steaks and not cubes. I did have to pan cook the beef as it was raining out and I didn't want to get wet grilling. This became an instant favorite and it was so simple to make. Everyone needs to try this. Everyone!
