About this Cook
I'm a Stay at Home Mom to a handsome baby boy. My husband and I have been married for 2 years.
My favorite things to cook
Breads . Main Dishes . Desserts . I like to cook from scratch. I know in the fast paced world we live in now that cooking and baking like that seems behind the times, but I get no greater satisfaction than I do from cooking and baking like my Grandma did while I was growing up. Plus, doing it from scratch just tastes better!
My favorite family cooking traditions
My grandma's cooking and baking. There wasn't a thing about it that I didn't like. I want to be exactly like her and carry on her tradition of exceptional food made from scratch. Peanut Butter Pie was a favorite of my family's...we have it at every family get together and we also make it quite often just to enjoy after a meal!
My cooking triumphs
I find triumph in making a dish that my husband really likes. He's somewhat of a picky eater and so getting him to tell me how much he likes a meal without me prodding him for an answer is a great triumph. It helps taht I'm learning his specific food tastes, and how to meld flavors and spices together.
My cooking tragedies
I made grilled cheese for my husband and I one night. I burnt them so bad that our fire alarms that hadn't gone off in months due to dead batteries went off. I brought dead batteries back to life!

Fudge
A very tasty recipe and very easy to make! I was afraid that I burnt the chocolate mixture in the microwave after only 4 minutes, and stirring every 1.5 minutes - but once I put it in the pan and let it refrigerate overnight, it set up to look and taste just like the fudge I knew growing up!

Zucchini-Chocolate Chip Muffins
These are stupendous! I left out the walnuts, and substituted raisins for chocolate chips. SO good!

Pretzel Dessert
This was okay. The pretzel crust got pretty soggy very quickly.
