About this Cook
I am a newlywed, trying to get better at cooking for my husband :). I really enjoy it & love this website because I've found so many great recipes!
My favorite things to cook
I love to bake (I have a serious sweet tooth!), and I just like to try any new recipes that sound interesting to me. I also love to cook the recipes that my mom always made, because those were the basics that I started with :).
My favorite family cooking traditions
Every year for Christmas Eve dinner, my family has fondue, usually steak with different vegetables. It is so fun & interactive, & a really nice treat that we only have once a year.
My cooking triumphs
I just threw a small birthday party for my husband, & I decided to make all the food myself just to see if I could do it. It turned out great! Everyone loved the food & I got tons of compliments, & I think it really impressed his family (another one of my goals haha).

Easy Pancakes
These are great! I followed the suggestions of other reviewers & cut the baking powder back to 2 teaspoons, & cut the salt back a little as well. I've made these several times on Saturday mornings for my husband & have made minor additional changes (based on what I have on hand or what mood I'm in :)), but the basic recipe is very simple & delicious, especially for someone who doesn't keep pancake mix on hand.

White Almond Wedding Cake
Delicious! And I love that the base is a boxed cake mix...makes it that much easier :). I frosted it with just a store-bought chocolate frosting & it was great! Can't wait to try it with other frostings/fillings/fondant :).

Spicy Refrigerator Dill Pickles
Yum! I was so excited to try this recipe, & I was not disappointed! I'm a huge pickle lover, & these tasted really similar to one of my favorite kinds of pickles. The only change I will make next time is to probably eliminate the sugar completely. I only put in between 1-2 tablespoons, & I still wasn't a fan of the sweet taste. I guess I just like my pickles sour :). Overall, though, really great recipe!
