About this Cook
I am a stay at home mom of 2 kids. A 4 year old boy and a 1 year old girl. I really enjoy cooking. We are living in Hershey PA while my husband finishes up school. I love recipes that are classics and also a good challenge.
My favorite things to cook
I really love to cook almost anything. I am not quite as good at baking. I am trying to get better! The only thing I am good at baking is bread. Fresh bread cooking in the house is my favorite! And a good ethnic dish, like Indian tikka masala.
My favorite family cooking traditions
My family is Italian and so we generally overuse garlic! I love almost all food, but I really love seafood Christmas dinner that I grew up with.
My cooking triumphs
Any meal that turns out good is a triumph! I have yet to triumph a great sourdough bread.
My cooking tragedies
Mushy rice or a flat loaf of bread...both have happened more than once.

Pizza Dough I
Excellent recipe. Out of habit I add yeast, warm water and sugar to bosch for 5 minutes while I gather other ingredients. Then I add oil and salt and mix in one cup of flour at a time until enough flour is added (usually 2 and 3/4Cup). Make sure the middle of the pizza dough is pretty thin and the edges can be thicker. I have made several times and it has always turned out perfect. I usually make one pizza crust and 6 bread sticks. Thanks for the great recipe!

Best-Ever Texas Caviar
This is the BEST fresh bean dip/appetizer ever! Used chickpeas instead of black-eyed peas. Used the juice of one lime. EXCELLENT.

Sam's Famous Carrot Cake
Its just O.K. I don't really love pineapple and coconut in my carrot cake, but thought I should branch out because of this recipes high rating. Not one of my guests loved it. I make it EXACTLY as called for. It was fine, just not excellent. I do prefer more carrot and spice though.
