About this Cook
Single mum of 3 who loves to bake. With two teenagers and a toddler it seems to be a necessary skill.
My favorite things to cook
Almost anything.
My favorite family cooking traditions
I love the food I grew up with, potato pancakes or German sausage with sauerkraut. Mainly European influences.
My cooking triumphs
Black forest cheesecake, a recipe my ex-mother in law refused to part with. Until I found it in a school based text book and amazingly it turned out even better then hers. A huge triumph.
My cooking tragedies
Peaches and warm custard just don't go together I found out.

Fresh Pear Bread
Excellent recipe, halved it to make one loaf but didn't change anything other then using wholemeal flour instead of white. Absolutely scrumptious and will definitely make again. Thanks for the great recipe.

Perogies
I was looking for something with bacon and cheese to make for my toddler after he had lost some weight from being ill. He hasn't tried them yet but I loved them and that was without frying them. This was my first time making and trying them and I was very pleasantly surprised. I used wholemeal flour as that is what was on hand, and I added a combination of garlic and onion salt in place of the plain salt for the pastry. The pastry also sat for a few hours before I actually got to use it as my toddler was keeping me busy. I had no hassles with stickiness etc, it rolled out beautifully. Thanks for an excellent recipe. (eta-toddler has since tried them and loved them also, so it's definitely now worth 5 stars)

Chocolate Chocolate Chip Cookies I
Amazing, I would rate these higher if I could also. Unfortunately I am home alone and no one knows I have made them as yet, so it is taking a bucket of willpower not to eat them ALL. Divine and thoroughly decadent. Thanks for this keeper Kathy.
