My husband & I on our Alaskan Cruise
About this Cook
I am a mother and grandmother. When I married my wonderful husband, I inherited 15 grandchildren, so when the family gets together, there is a lot of food!! I have the honor of watching my 2 youngest grandchildren 1 day a week, and love to make yummy foods.
My favorite things to cook
Desserts are my specialty!! I love trying new ones. I also love using the slow cooker...start the meal in the morning and by dinner time, it is ready to eat!
My favorite family cooking traditions
Every Christmas I make a Breakfast Casserole made with sausage. The family always asks for this. Also for my grown children's birthdays, they request Taco Casserole and Jerk Chicken, and I love both! My husband loves Salmon and Tilapia, so always looking for new and great recipes for seafood.
My cooking triumphs
Peanut butter fudge...ymmmm! Also Punch Bowl Cake, and beef roast with the fixins.
My cooking tragedies
In cooking for over 30 years, there have been many...probably the worst was while expecting my second child, I dropped an entire (just baked) casserole on the kitchen floor (32 years ago, the kitchen was carpeted!).

Coconut Ambrosia Salad
I have made this salad twice for parties. It went over great both times! The changes I made were similar to the others, sour cream instead of milk, and added pistachio pudding. I also added some orange extract to give it a little boost. I will definitely make this again!

Scrambled Egg Brunch Bread
I made two of these for Sunday School. For the first, I followed the recipe, except added extra cream cheese, garlic salt & cajun seasoning. I did not really care for the deli ham. Next time I will use ham chunks. For the second, I used brocolli and the other extra items added in. It was loved by all. I will certainly make this again!

Country Breakfast Casserole
I made this for our S.S. class, and it got rave reviews. As some of the others did, I added mushrooms, garlic salt, put the bread on the bottom, and added 1/2 cup more milk than it called for. I made it up the night before to let it set all night. I will definitely make this again!
