About this Cook
I love food! I enjoy trying out new recipes and have found some delightful tastes through the years. It's fun to try new things even the disasters have taught me something.
My favorite family cooking traditions
I come from a Greek family and have wonderful memories attached to certain dishes. My parents always encouraged us to be open minded about food and I'm so glad they made me try new things. I appreciate all types of cuisine, especially family recipes that have been passed down.

White Chocolate Macadamia Nut Cookies IV
Excellent cookies! My boyfriend's favorite cookie. I agree with another poster that using only whilte sugar is perfect for the white chocolate to really shine. I eyed the amount of chocolate and nuts but that is only to my taste cause I like more cookie.

Dump Cake IV
This is the first time I've ever made a dump cake, only heard about them last week. I read through all the recipes on here and the reviews. What I learned was to add instant vanilla pudding to the cake mix and grate the butter over the top. I forgot to add walnuts and coconut in the last ten minutes and I had to cook it longer than the directions said. About 10-15 minutes more. I still had some dry cake mix in parts but over all it was pretty good and I don't like cherries! It was also a bit sweet for my taste but the boyfriend loved it and so did his daughter so I'll probably make it again!

Spring Salad
I LOVE this salad. I can't tell you how many times I've made this and how many people love it. In fact my friend had a pot luck wedding and when I asked her husband to be what he wanted me to bring, this was his first choice! I can't say enough about how delicious this is. I make it the night before, somehow leaving it overnight lets the flavors blend. I HIGHLY recomend you try this.
