About this Cook
I am married and have 2 children, both boys.I have been a medical assistant for many years but now have a career change with recent graduation from college in the field of education.
My favorite things to cook
Chicken of any kind is a family favorite. During the hot summer months we BBQ quite a bit so marinades and spice rubs come in handy. During the winter months the slow cooker is a must... I have 2 of them so I can make several recipes then stock up the freezer. My family also loves mexican cuisine with a favorite being mexican lasagna.
My favorite family cooking traditions
Trying something at least once. Not everyone is going to like all of the same things and that's o.k....but at least try it.
My cooking triumphs
Most of what I cook is a triumph. I like to play with ingredients to suit our tastes so when it is a positive change that the whole famiy enjoys, I know I've done good!
My cooking tragedies
Angel food cake.....just can't seem to get it right!
