Hello- I am a mother of two children who are almost grown. I'm a stay at home mom right now, supplementing my income with ebay! As I wait for the kids to go off to college, I dream of traveling. My inspiration comes from Diners, Drive-ins, and Dives! I used to want to travel Europe- now I can't wait to drive all over the US of A!
My favorite things to cook
I love cooking tacos since they are my families favorite, but my passion is to bake. Dessert is the greatest, isn't it?
My favorite family cooking traditions
I never thought of them as family traditions, but I guess that's exactly what they have become! Over the last several years, I have taught my son how to make my special tacos. If I'm not home to start them, he's happy to help out. I also have a wonderful corn souffle recipe everyone seems to go crazy about, so my daughter now enjoys making it for special occasions so she can get the rave reviews!
My cooking triumphs
I only eat poultry, but I still cook other meat items for my family. I guess I can call it a triumph when they like it, since I don't ever taste it to see if it needs anything else. My boyfriend thinks I'm a genius when I can season something just right without tasting it!
My cooking tragedies
I'm sure there's plenty of them, but nothing sticks out in my mind. I can't seem to get the hang of cooking tofu- a goal of mine, since I love it!
