I love to cook and entertain/throw dinner parties.
My favorite things to cook
Dishes with a lot of flavor...Interesting things that are unexpected, yet delicious. I'm really into kumquats and goat cheese right now. Not necessarily together, but as ingredients. Also mint. Interestingly enough, my favorite cocktail is a kumquat mojito, which uses 2 out of 3 of my favorite things...
My favorite family cooking traditions
My mom is an AMAZING cook. Martha Stewart style - fabulous. That's where I got it...my dad got pretty creative in the kitchen when I was a kid too...He used to make a KILLER broccoli salad any 8 year old would love.
My cooking triumphs
Chocolate Souffle. Enough said.
My cooking tragedies
None to date.
