My favorite things to cook
I love to bake cakes, cookies, pies-- anything sweet!
My favorite family cooking traditions
My younger siblings and I were crazy about chili cheese dip when we were little. Not much cooking involved, really, but we still have some form of cheesy dip at almost every party.
My family really likes the sausage cheese balls I make, so I often make them for our get-togethers.
My cooking triumphs
I'm very picky about chicken alfredo, but if I do say so myself, it's pretty good when I make it. My family always seems to enjoy it too. It's one of the few things I don't mind eating as a leftover!
My cooking tragedies
Oh, there have been several. I'm not a naturally talented cook by any definition of the word, but I do give it my best. I once used sweetened condensed milk (bought it by accident instead of evaporated milk) and Splenda (was out of white sugar) in a pumpkin pie. On top of that, the crust burned. I wouldn't even taste it, but I'm sure it was awful!
