My husband use to do all the cooking, but now that we have a beautiful little girl in our life, he is in charge of bathtime and the bedtime routine most nights so i have to step up to the plate (ha!) and put dinner on the table. i'm a pretty decent baker, but my dinner making skills are paltry.
My favorite things to cook
super easy but flavorful dishes. i do make a mean turkey chili.
My favorite family cooking traditions
i don't have any but would like to start some with our little lady.
My cooking triumphs
Chocolate Burbon Pecan Pie that was neither too runny nor too dry that i made for Thanksgiving last year. My friends and husband are still talking about it. :)
My cooking tragedies
the latest? last week when i tried to make a lentil and sausage dish in the slow cooker. not sure what i did wrong, but the lentils were 'al dente' and there was little to no flavor. we ate it, but ended up pitching the leftovers...
