About this Cook
I enjoy being in the kitchen, whipping up something tasty for my husband. I live with my husband and our misbehaving kitty, Rhett in a suburb of Cleveland. My husband and kitty love anything and everything I make. I enjoy perusing Cleveland's West Side Market for new and exciting things. Cooking was an undiscovered passion of mine, until about halfway through my college career, when I discovered that I had a surprising knack for it. Since then one cannot keep me out of the kitchen.
My favorite things to cook
I love to try my hand at anything at least once. I am definitely a "saucier" as the French would say... my speciality is sauces of all types. Honey mustard sauce, teriyaki sauce, and most recently, currant-cabernet sauce. Yum! I like to cook anything for my husband, and he is always willing to eat it!

Chocolate Chocolate Chip Cake Cookies
These cookies are my husband's all time favorite!! They are moist and rich and loaded with flavor. I have tried several variations on these cookies-- I have made them as directed with nuts and semi-sweet chips... very yummy :). I have also made them using bakers chocolate, broken up into bits or very dark chocolate morsels (try Ghirardelli 60% cacao morsels)... my personal favorite. For Christmas this year, I am trying this recipe with Andes Mint chips... very excited and optimistic!! Note: The dough is very thick... I would not recommend trying to make a double batch-- it's very hard to mix.

Brigid's Blackberry Pie
This is an excellent blackberry pie recipe. I used fresh blackberries picked from my family's property and was able to make four pies. Easy to make and wonderfully refreshing with a scoop of French vanilla ice cream!

Whipped Cream
Excellent- so easy to make... instead of a whisk, I used my electric hand mixer and its whisk attachment. This recipe puts those fake "whipped topping" products to shame! You just can't beat the freshness of homemade whipped cream!
