I am a mother to a wonderful 5-year-old little boy, and a graduate student studying school psychology. I enjoy cooking because I enjoy eating good foods, and I enjoy baking to relax and satisfy my sweet tooth.
My favorite things to cook
Stir-fry anything, and slow-cooker dishes when I'm gone at school all day. Salmon is a big favorite in our household, we like it baked in foil or cooked stove-top.
My favorite family cooking traditions
Making cookies with my son around Christmastime and delicious treats to share on any holiday.
My cooking triumphs
I'm still a beginner so I haven't made or created anything amazing yet! A white-chocolate raspberry cheesecake I made for Christmas one year is probably the most complex dish I've accomplished.
My cooking tragedies
Despite my love of baking and baked goods, things never seem to come out as tasty as I'd hoped. I'm enjoying practicing though!
