My favorite things to cook
Italian and mexican one dish meals and desserts.
My favorite family cooking traditions
We mostly cook southern but my mother cooked many different ethnics, per my fathers request. It was a great experience getting to taste many different kinds of food and it was fun trying to guess what we were going to have that evening.

Fresh Apple Cake II
I've been making this cake for years. I love this cake and so does eveyone that tries it. I use half the amount of nuts (we dont care too much for nuts), but I add that same amount of raisins (we like the chewyness it gives). To top it off I brush a little melted margarine to the top of the cake and then sprinkle it with cinnamon and sugar. Perfect! It's more like a coffee cake to me so it's perfect for breakfast.

Cool Whipped Frosting
Great cake frosting! I dont care for 'too sweet' frostings so this is a wonderful, lighter change. I use different kinds of pudding mix depending on the kind of cake I'm making, and it always turns out great!
