My cooking triumphs
Taking over for my mother and cooking on Thanksgiving for my family one year, my brother noted that I got the flavor of the stuffing just right. It tasted just like my mom's!
My cooking tragedies
I worked for 3 hours preparing the PERFECT strawberry/rhubarb pie. It looked heavenly as I pulled it from the oven...up until I accidentally turned it out onto the floor. :-(

Dee's Roast Pork for Tacos
Delicious! My friends all loved it. I used a 4# pork butt roast, added a diced onion the recipe and cooked it in a dutch oven for 3 1/2 hours on 300. It was so delicious and moist. I'd recommend trimming the roast if there is a lot of fat to prevent having to separate it later. I also made a tomatillo salsa to go with this. I make my own corn tortillas and we also topped these with queso fresco, shredded cabbage and a squeeze of lime. Sublime!

Aunty Pasto's Seafood Lasagna
This recipe just did not do it for me or my guests. One reviewer suggested using Cream of Shrimp soup instead of mushroom soup. I thought, seafood lasagna...shrimp soup, makes sense. I also sauteed the mushrooms ahead of time to cut down on the excess moisture. The moisture level was fine but for some reason, this recipe just didn't have the rich, creamy flavor I expected. I think next time, I'll use a home made cream sauce instead of a canned cream soup. Oh, and if you use no-boil lasagna, be sure you put some of the sauce on the bottom of the pan and not oil the pan as the recipe indicates. The oil will make your noodles crunchy with the no-boil variety. BTW, I even used lump king crab meat in this recipe. I had leftovers and no one wanted them. I really think the cream of shrimp soup was the culprit.
