Wife for 20 years, three gorgeous children (I'm not exaggerating!), a darling dog, numerous fish and a Sabine Map turtle. I came from a fairly large family, where my parents regularly made do with little and taught me to do likewise. Compulsive reader and writer.
My favorite things to cook
I like baking, but I'm still looking for perfect recipes--not satisfied with 90 percent of bread machine recipes! I love roasting, and I love crock-pots-- it's perfect: dump stuff in a pot and leave it alone all day!
My favorite family cooking traditions
Fudge. Yeah. Definitely fudge.
My cooking triumphs
I make the most fabulous pot roast.
My cooking tragedies
When my pressure cooker blew its rubber valve. Still finding splatter from that after five years. And once I made lemon-garlic chicken in the crock-pot, but that stuff was nasty.
