About this Cook
I'm retired, recently in my second marriage. I have horses, dogs, and miniature goats. I love the outdoors. I like to camp and trail ride with my horses. I have 3 grandchildren which are my most favorite things. I love to do crafts and am just beginning quilting.
My favorite things to cook
I love to bake pies and cookies. I enjoy trying new recipes.
My favorite family cooking traditions
I have always been the bread maker for the family. I have been cheating for the last several years with a bread machine but my rolls are still a hit with the family.
My cooking triumphs
My family loves my rolls and cinnamon rolls and my husband always requests my BBQ beef brisket. After some 40 years of preparing turkey dinners I have a pretty good routine established.
My cooking tragedies
There have been many of those unfortunately. Of course, I'm my worst critique!

Italian Sausage Lasagna
I have a very similar recipe from Better Homes and Gardens that also uses sausage and it has always been my favorite. This one interested me because it said it served 3. For just my husband and I for me to make lasagna, it means lots of leftovers which he eventually tires of. This still made too much but it was very delicious. This will be my favorite lasagna recipe from now on!

Felix K.'s 'Don't even try to say these aren't the best you've ever eaten, because they are' Chocolate Chip Cookies
These definitely are the BEST chocolate chip cookies! My 9 yr. old grandson agrees too! I made them just like the recipe says except I traded 1 stick of margarine for 1 stick of butter. I baked them at 300ยบ for 17 min. and let them cool for 20. They didn't look done when I took them out of the oven but after setting they turned out just like they were supposed to

Swedish Spareribs
I made this today after reading the many good reviews. I probably won't make again mostly because I must not care for the allspice. The only thing I did different was I only had boneless country style ribs, which I thought that they would be even more tender. I expected that the broth would have thickened after comments on other reviews, but I had to add cornstarch.
