About this Cook
My favorite chefs are Paula Deen and my boyfriend! I am native Floridian who loves reality TV, shopping online, trying new beauty products, and I work as a teller for a local Credit Union.
My favorite things to cook
I love making anything with lots of texture. Some of my favs to cook are stuffed chicken, chili recipes, all types of pastas and making baked goods, especially breads.
My favorite family cooking traditions
I always remember growing up helping my Meme make green, Christmas tree cookies out of a press each holiday season. They always looked and tasted so perfect!
My cooking triumphs
I am a master of baking!!! Especially homemade white bread, which I recently made my first attempt at! My very first loaf came out perfect...and I felt so proud. Now I enjoy putting in lots of effort into making fabulous yeast breads without a breadmaker!!!
My cooking tragedies
Before I joined this website I knew how to cook NOTHING....I tried cooking some pork chops with all kinds of mismatched stuff, including HONEY!!! Which of course burned in the pan and when he got home he said "eww what is that burnt smell!" Needless to say, we did not eat it and I was sad from ruining my first attempt at making a surprise dinner all by myself for my boyfriend!!! To this day he still makes fun of me for trying to sautee honey!!! LOL.

Pear Pie III
Great Recipe! Making another one tonight since the one from last night is gone already! Got rave reviews from my bf and roommate...I added crushed pineapple, brown sugar, cinnamon and vanilla. Very tasty and gave it more flavor I thought!

Chocolate Velvet Ice Cream
This was the first time I tried to make chocolate ice cream....and it came out great!!! Tasted very expensive and rich...I substituted just 1/3 cup of cream for milk for a bit less greasiness, and added 1 tsp. vanilla and a pinch of salt. Used 2 bars of Hershey's Special Dark chopped up and put into ice cream maker last few mins. of churning. Was very chocolatey and will make again!!! Thank you!!!
