I am 23 with 3 kids. my 12yr old stepson, 2 yr old daughter and 9 month old son. I have been cooking since I was 9, and was employed as a cook for 2 years. My husband is a rig pig so I am home all day with the kids, so we cook alot! I love trying new recipes, and I like it even more when my recipes turn out! It is rare I hear complaints about my cooking. I figure cheese or chocolate (depending on the dish) will make everything good or better!
My favorite things to cook
I love to bake. I make some awesome chocolate chip cookies, soft and chewy, always a hit. Anything in the slow cooker is great. I love throwing things together, turning it on and having a meal made by dinner time. And salads, Layered salad is a fav. I like putting ground flax seeds in everything from salads to cookies.
My favorite family cooking traditions
I always bring something to family get togethers, even if I was not asked to..... I am known for my Broccoli Cheese Puff, Chocolate Chip Cookies, and desserts.
My cooking triumphs
I am very proud of the Cheeseburger Cake I made. The Mushroom Chicken in White wine sauce.
My cooking tragedies
I have a tendancy to over cook chicken and pork, drying them terribly. BBQ-ing is not my forte. I burn it.
