About this Cook
Married to a wonderful, caring man. I am also a proud parent of a preteen and a baby boy
My favorite things to cook
I love to try new things & I also LOVE a challange but Desserts are my favorite by far.
My favorite family cooking traditions
Everybody gathering in the kitchen to help with dinner. I come from a very large family. When ever we have a family get together all the ladies seem to gather in the kitchen talking, whipping up good things to eat, and eating of course!
My cooking triumphs
A cake I made for my daughter's 10th birthday. It was cake in the shape of a teapot. Hand decorated with flowers. The cake was chocolate with Mocha filling. I had a lot of compliments on that cake!
My cooking tragedies
I remember when I was young trying to cook macaroni & cheese and would burn it every time. I even burnt the water. I've come a LONG LONG way since then!

Coconut-Lime Chicken with Grilled Pineapple
I was very surprised with the taste of this recipe. At first I tasted the sauce without the chicken and didn't like it. Then I put a teaspoonful on the chicken just to try it. WOW! Really good! We modified it and used Corona beer instead, but it was REALLY REALLY good. Chicken was so moist and full of flavor. We will definitely try this recipe when we have friends and family over!

Simple Spinach Salad
This recipe was very good. We cut out the onions and mushrooms. We also modified the dressing a bit. We only used 2 TBS of sugar for the same amount of Mayo and Red Wine Vinegar it called for. It was really sweet cutting out half the sugar. We will DEFINITELY use this recipe again!
