About Me
Hi, I'm Traci a wife and mother of two boys; a teen and a tween! I enjoy cooking mostly because I love good food.. Now that I'm a "Full-Time Domestic Goddess" lol I'm cooking more! Some nights we "rough it" and everyone fixes what they want ie: sandwich, cereal, pbj... I first started cooking when I was a teenager. I started cooking from my moms' Betty Crocker cookbook. I loved to make me and my brother yummy treats! Now I love making them for my boys!..
My favorite things to cook
Some of our favorite meals have been recipes I've found here, such as, Seafood Cioppino, Shrimp Durango, and Chicken Satay. We all have sweet tooths and I like to bake a dessert at least once a week.
My favorite family cooking traditions
Whoever's birthday it is gets to pick their favorite dinner; both of my boys have picked "Seafood Cioppino" on their last birthdays! When my oldest turned 18 he brought five of his friends home to try it!
My cooking triumphs
I fed about 25 people at a baby shower I hosted for my sister in-law some months back. It was my first time cooking for so many people. I'm proud of myself, even if I did do FROZEN ravioli's! =)
My cooking tragedies
About 5 minutes before company was due to arrive I had the second batch of garlic bread under the broiler which I asked my oldest son to take out for me so I could finish getting ready! It was so embarrasing, the smoke alarm was going off when the guests arrived!.. He'obviously forgot about it!
