About this Cook
I'm a 25 year old female from Oregon, and surprise: I like to cook.
My favorite things to cook
I love to cook appetizers, desserts, dips, and exotic ethnic foods like Thai, Indian, and Morrocan. I love to try new things, so I do it for the variety of tastes and fun. I also like to decorate my food. So the more beautiful, odd or outlandish it LOOKS, the more appealing it is to me.
My favorite family cooking traditions
Every Thanksgiving, and Christmas it's THE SAME THING EVERY TIME. Nothing is ever DIFFERENT. Maybe that's why I have to switch it up all of the time. Lol, unbalanced parenting, unbalanced offspring. Kind of explains why I don't have a husband. Haha, jk. Well, maybe not, but that's an entirely different story for an entirely different website. :-D
My cooking triumphs
I don't know, I make everything great. My cooking triumph is that I'm me.
My cooking tragedies
It's a pretty touchy subject, but I made a really unfortunate-tasting corn chowder when I was 18. Actually it was so bad that my EX-boyfriend tried to drown me in it. I'm just kidding.

Bacon Wrapped Water Chestnuts II
This was pretty good. I used tapatio for the chili sauce since I was clueless about what kind of chili sauce to use since there are so many different types of chiles out there. I mean "chili sauce" is a pretty ambiguous ingredient. It could mean anything, so I used tapatio. Was anyone else stressing about what kind of chili sauce to use? I almost didn't make this because I didn't know what "chili sauce" meant. Anyway, it turned out good. Next time I'll try it using miracle whip and some other random sauce with some kind of chile in it. I precooked the bacon halfway before wrapping the chestnuts. I think it helps the chestnuts keep their crunch while in the oven. And of course the bacon gets crunchier sooner! Anyway, I'm going to serve this to my boyfriend some time.

Saltine Toffee Cookies
Very easy to make. Tastes a lot like almond roca, except better. I toasted the chopped pecans.
