About this Cook
Married August 2007 Recent college grad works a lot, but loves to cook when I have the chance I like to try new recipes
My favorite things to cook
chicken pasta anything with cheese Mexican cookies, cakes, brownies, pie... anything sweet
My favorite family cooking traditions
My mom has never enjoyed cooking and she rarely does it. I wanted to change that tradition when I got a family of my own. I have been trying to cook as much as I can for my husband and I, but we are both students and work a lot. Hopefully I will someday have time to be a masterful chef.
My cooking triumphs
I make this Chicken Kiev that I found in a book and my husband LOVES it. I made it in our 2nd month of marriage and he was so impressed. He gets so excited when I make it.
My cooking tragedies
I tried to make cocount cream pie and it never set up. It still tasted amazing, but it was like coconut cream pudding. I was bummed.

Tequila Shrimp
I followed the directions. It all seemed bland except for the Tequila. It needed a little something else when you serve it with pasta. If you love the flavor of Tequila you might just like this one though.

Asian Salad
My favorite salad ever. I didn't even know I liked cabbage. I followed the directions this time and loved it. Next time I will use half of the butter (you can ommit it, but I just love the butter flavor). I will also use a little less oil in the dressing. If your nappa cabbage isn't very large this recipe will make too much dressing. I will also seperate the 3 sections for left overs. It was seriously so good and so easy. ALSO- if you have a food processor use that because I really like the small shreads of the cabbage. If you are just using a knife- chop cabbage into small shreads. This is a must try!
