I am a very active member of the Baptist church I joined in 2007. Fund raisers and social events often take the form of pot luck dinners and bake sales. I serve on the Caring and Fellowship Commission. Food seems to be a source of comfort to many folks. While I am a long-time cook, my style is quite simple. Adventurous, I am not. I enjoy cooking and sharing meals with my friends. I am looking forward to exchanging some of my recipes with all of you. I enjoy baking, have some wonderful ice cream pie recipes that I've modified, and a roast that I make in a crock pot that comes out absolutely scrumptious! I found recipes in mystery books that are yummy, my favorite being a very simple lasagna recipe, and ribs that I can cook in a crock pot. Chicken and Dummplings and a delicious roast, both in a slow cooker. I tried some brownies from a mix. They were so simple, and came out absolutely horrible! I made one of the Sides-To-Go quite recently. It ttasted like glue, and had the same consistency.
