About this Cook
I'm a very new cook -- as in, I had to look up the word "colander" for my first dish, a pasta/alfredo that went so well, I've kept learning. I'm a college graduate and I've worked as a bartender for years, and I still do today.
My favorite things to cook
Pasta, meat loaf, sauces...I'd like to get into cooking bigger pieces of meat and poultry.
My cooking triumphs
Everything I do is a triumph because I never imagined myself being able to create a meal at home.

Grand Margarita
Fresh lime juice is the secret. I disagree with the bartender who recommends Cuervo -- I've slowly come to believe that the people who order Patron silver margaritas are not idiots wasting fine tequila. It's great for margaritas. A cheaper alternative might be Sauva Hornitos. My personal favorite is Herradura, but like the reviewer who is a restaurant owner and bartender, it can be a waste. Good tequila is like good wine, and you don't have to slam it like a college kid to enjoy it.

The Witness
I submitted this recipe, and I would suggest using TWO SPLASHES of each mixer: rose's, freh lime, cranberry, and grapefruit, NOT fluid ounces!
