About this Cook
I grew up in the restaurant business. I enjoyed a good prime rib & lobster from the age of about 7. I have traveled all over the world and enjoyed all cuisines. My husband and I both love to cook. We enjoy food and we say that the best meal is the one you put "love" into.
My favorite things to cook
We like to experiment and cook many different things. My husband grills a lot. I guess my favorite would be my special recipe bruschetta that I created.
My favorite family cooking traditions
Cooking together and calling it an occasion. On the holidays my mother and like to start early with Irish coffee while preparing the stuffing! :-)
My cooking triumphs
My bruschetta. Perhaps I'll post the recipe sometime. Also my chicken marsala and my spaghetti.
My cooking tragedies
I tried making tiramasu for my mother, non of us could eat it. I'm not sure what went wrong but it has now become the family joke. I am better at making the meal, than I am at the desert. I'd like to learn to make some nice deserts for special occasions though.

Special Deviled Eggs
I am giving this recipe five stars because it is a VERY GOOD recipe that MOST ANYONE would at "least" LIKE. My own recipe seems to still be a favorite in my house so perhaps I'll post that one some day. THIS IS A VERY GOOD RECIPE. Once making it, there are changes anyone could make to suit their individual taste. However, that said, I think this is a "CAN'T GO WRONG TO PLEASE A CROWD" basic start recipe! Thanks!!!

Alyson's Broccoli Salad
YUM!!! I had been looking for a recipe like the Deli Broccoli salad I enjoy. THIS IS IT, YAY! My husband said he could have used lighter on the red onions, but I LOVED IT JUST THE WAY IT WAS. I can see how you can change this to your own taste. THIS IS A GREAT RECIPE to start with. LIKE IT as is and LIKE it if you change per your favorite taste! GREAT RECIPE, DO TRY!

Oven-Fried Potatoes
We really liked this! I only gave it a 4 because I like others better, like the "roasted Cajun potatoes" on this site, but overall this was SIMPLE, EASY and MUCH BETTER than regular potatoes. This is a great BREAKFAST recipe for company, served with eggs or whatever! I thought the BLEND of spices and cheese was perfect. My husband said HE WOULD HAVE USED A LITTLE LESS CHEESE. This recipe could EASILY be altered to add or take away whatever spices/cheese you prefer. Thats why I like THIS RECIPE! Its a good recipe TO TRY FOR EVERYONES TASTE!
