About this Cook
I'm (still) a graduate student, and cooking is a huge stress reliever for me.
My favorite things to cook
Anything from scratch! I love baking pie, making lasagna, developing new pasta salads, trying out new relishes for grilled chicken and pork, and modifying recipes each time I try them.
My cooking triumphs
I once made Beef Wellington - completely from scratch - for my husband's birthday. (But I'll probably never do it again!)

Holiday Pumpkin Cake with Rum-Cream Cheese Glaze
I made this cake twice: the first time, I used the specified 3 cups of pumpkin, and the cake deflated into a dense, chewy, not-so-hot excuse for a cake while it cooled. Then I made it a second time, with only 1 1/2 cups of pumpkin, and the result was an unbelievably delicious cake that was devoured in a single day at my husband's office and won me a reputation for culinary brilliance. The moral is that this cake deserves five stars IF YOU CUT THE PUMPKIN IN HALF. Otherwise, it barely rates three. On the other hand, the glaze was deliciously addictive!!

Horseshoe
Hooray for hoseshoes! My grandparents live in Springfield, and every summer when we went to visit, we always went out at least once to get horseshoe sandwiches. Great memories and great comfort food!
