I have been cooking since I was old enough to stand on a chair to reach the counter, I have been scrapbooking since about 6th grade, I love gardening and planting flowers, I love taking care of our 3 Shar Pei ( Sian, Bair and Runt) and most of all I love being about to go trucking all over the U.S. with my husband and our dogs in our Peterbilt(I even have a small kitchen in the sleeper)
My favorite things to cook
Oh wow.. umm I like to cook things that I was brough up on.. My mom had dinner on the table every night and if one of us weren't there at that table my dad would have a fit.
Now, if I had to pick today I love using the grill ( streaks, ribs ect) can't forget the pasta, pulled pork, salads, scalloped potatoes, Chilli, Swiss steak, chicken, taco's ect... I love to cook anything!
My favorite family cooking traditions
Everyone gathered around for dinner no matter how busy you are.
My dad always says two things
1. if you are not proud of it, dont serve it.
2. Presenation is the key!
My cooking triumphs

My cooking tragedies
Too many to list... Everyone makes mistakes.. that is how we learn.
