About this Cook
I love throwing dinner parties for a dozen and I love seeing my family around the table every evening.

My cooking triumphs

My cooking tragedies
As a novice, I tried making chicken soup and left that stock pot on low for way too long... that effort brought the fire department and I had to have the carpets cleaned to get the smoke smell out. I'm make MUCH better soup now!

Coq au Vin alla Italiana
I did this just as it was written, except for fresh tomatoes from our garden and I cooked it in the crock pot. Terrific.

Eggplant Delight
I enjoyed the recipe but came to comment about how many people had trouble with the eggplant soaking up the oil. Eggplant does that UNLESS you salt it and let it weep first. Just toss it with some salt, and let it sit for an hour or so. Rinse it, pat it dry and proceed with your recipe.

Gary's Stuffed Mushrooms
I agree, Gary never proofread this because 2 sticks of butter is just crazy. I used sausage, scallions, cream cheese and stuffing, which made a tasty stuffing for 3 boxes of mushrooms. I put a pinch of fresh parm on top of each one, and drizzled a melted half stick of butter over the lot. Cook time was close to 30 minutes. EVERY time, they get top reviews from my quests!
