About this Cook
I'm a twenty four year old wife, new mommy and business owner. I love having all of my family over and cooking for them, I just wish I had a bigger house! I love cooking for my husband especially because he will eat anything I put in front of him and he never says anything bad, even if it's not quite what it should be. I like experimenting with food because that's how you learn.
My favorite things to cook
Anything that's not too labor intensive, because it's kinda hard to get even mac-n-cheese on the table when you have a baby!
My favorite family cooking traditions
My Grandma is a 90 year old Italian lady and I love to watch her make cinnamon rolls. She won't write down a recipe for any of her food because it's all in her head and she never makes it the same way twice! It's all about what feels, looks and tastes right. That's how you know your a good cook, hopefully someday I'll be as good as she is!
My cooking triumphs
Making enough food for a baby shower while staying on a budget and making it taste good! My next feat will be my son's 1st Birthday party!
My cooking tragedies
Cookies. . . I don't know what I'm doing wrong, but they always come out like pancakes! Which is funny because my Grandma's cookies are always perfect! I'm going to blame in on the oven. . . :)

Rosemary Turkey Meatloaf
Way too much rosemary for me, but other than that I liked the sweet and tangy flavors. Next time I'll cut back on the rosemary.

Flank Steak Barbecue
Wow! I read the ingredients wrong and I over cooked the meat and it was still one of the best steaks I've ever had! My husband loved it and even my 19 month old loved it! This will become a once a week dinner for us! We tried it on chicken too and still yummy!
