My husband and I own a lodge in Alaska, so I get to cook for lots of people which is fun. I am always trying new recipes for breakfast and salmon and halibut, which we eat all summer long!!!
My favorite things to cook
I really enjoy making meals for our guests....I cook a lot of fish and game, and I really enjoy it. I really enjoy coming up with new salmon recipes and find that I am getting good at it!!!
My favorite family cooking traditions
We work with the Catch a Dream foundation, and we host a dinner for each family that we have. Those times have become very special to me, because I get to have new helpers in the kithcen, and we all get to pull together and make a beautiful meal for a very deserving family! VERY rewarding!!!
My cooking triumphs
I am very lucky because I usually recieve a lot of accalades for my cooking from our guests which is nice...but my heart just bursts whith joy when my 5 year old tells me how good something is!!!!
My cooking tragedies
Oddly, I overcooked french fries one night, and my husband ate them anyway....the whole time he acted as if he was doing the big dinner scene from "Christmas Vacation" and it really made me laugh about my mistake!!!
