I've been married for 30 years and have 3 grown children and 3 grandchildren ages 15, 5 and 9 months. My husband was born and raised in the community we live in so we do lots of family feasts. Our children were involved in Drum Corps so I've also done lots of cooking for groups over 100.
My favorite things to cook
Oriental Chicken Salad, Salmon Log, Vegetable Soups, Stir Fry Chicken, Chicken and Rice, Dessert Breads
My favorite family cooking traditions
My husband does all the grilling and we often have seafood fests for the family, putting shrimp, oysters, clams and sturgeon or salmon on the grill.
My cooking triumphs
Finding my great-grandmother's German Potato Cake recipe. It's made with mashed potatoes, chocolate and cream with a filling and is very yummy.
My cooking tragedies
defrosting a butterball turkey in the microwave the first year I was married. What a mess!
