About this Cook
I am married with two children. I am a stay at home mom who loves to cook and collect recipes. I love to be on the computer. I like to be creative.
My favorite things to cook
Italian, Mexican, baked goods and candies.
My favorite family cooking traditions
I love recipes handed down from earlier generations. I like to use these recipes to make holidays special. They make great comfort foods!
My cooking triumphs
Chinese food. I have yet to really come up with great recipes. I do have a great recipe for pot stickers and an easy recipe for egg rolls!
My cooking tragedies
A cake never turns out perfectly unless you are making it for no good reason!!

Butternut Squash Soup
To Die For!!! I made this last fall, and twice in the last week. Everyone raves over this soup. So good and rich. Smooth and creamy. Warms you up on fall nights. I follow the recipe exactly as written. I always use all the cream cheese. I plan on making this as a vegetarian option at my Halloween chili party this year. I will be making a double batch though, because I will guarantee you every non-veggie will want it too!! I use an immersion blender and blend it right in the pot. Velvety smooth. :)

Big Soft Ginger Cookies
Perfectly soft and chewy! I follow the recipe exactly as written. No more brick hard ginger cookies! A keeper for sure! Watch out, they won't last long in your house!!

The Best Rolled Sugar Cookies
Just as the name declares... These ARE the best rolled sugar cookies! So perfect! I always follow the recipe exactly as written. They bake beautifully thick and nice, stay the nice light color without browning. My one and only sugar cookie recipe. Decorated perfectly with the "sugar cookie icing by JBS BOX" Christmas cookies will never be the same in my house again! So beautiful you almost hate to eat them! Almost :)
