About this Cook
My favorite things to cook
I love baking! Cookies, cakes, (recently) pies, just about anything! I have tried to expand a bit, but that has yet to go very far ;)
My favorite family cooking traditions
Every Christmas my mother and I would take a day and make various candies. Peanut brittle and divinity among others. No matter how it turned out (usually interesting rather then "wow"), it was always fun to eat!
My cooking triumphs
My latest triumph has been my fist pie! It was a peach (literally and figuatively) and I am just beaming from ear to ear! Though I think my true triumph is my grilled cheese w/ bacon, my guy can't get enough of them!
My cooking tragedies
Oh there have been many! Mac & Cheese soup (from the box and homemade, I can't seem to get it right), a peach cobbler that could have been soup with a crust, and a particular batch of Oatmeal rasin cookies that I made with melted butter instead of softened (aparently there's a diffrence lol)

Fresh Strawberry Pie I
I took this pie to work and its was gone by the time I went home. But, personally, I think there was too much Jello. The pie reminded me a bit of a Jello fruit salad. So next time I'll just ease up on the "glaze" a little.

Basic Baked Spaghetti
A great basic recipe! It turned out well on its own, but next time I think I'll add olives, mushrooms and a few more spices and herbs. Thank you very much for posting!
