About this Cook
I'm a professional woman with a family. I love to cook great meals for my family when I'm off. When I'm not off, I try to make meals that are quick, easy, and delicious.
My favorite things to cook
More than anything, I love to bake. I attribute this to watching my mother bake us wonderful treats when I was a young girl.
My favorite family cooking traditions
Definitely baking, although we're all really good cooks who make a variety of great food.
My cooking triumphs
I recently won a first-place blue ribbon for my peach pie and second-place for my blueberry pie at a local county fair. I make great cookies, too (fancy ones for weddings- - this is a tradition in Western Pennsylvania).
My cooking tragedies
Plenty. The very first meal I cooked for my husband as new bride was homemade spaghetti sauce that was so salty we could barely eat it. He was nice and ate it anyway without complaining.

Sugar Snap Peas
Excellent! I used fresh sugar snap peas. I didn't have a shallot on hand, so I used a small amount of finely-diced sweet onion and a little garlic. Used fresh thyme from my garden. Will definitely make again!

Brian's Easy Stuffed Flounder
This recipe was easy to make and it was good, but the flavored stuffing mix overpowered the flavor of the crab meat (even though I added 3 more oz of crab meat to the stuffing). I'll be using plain bread crumbs in the future, or perhaps just look for another recipe. Also, this recipe made much more stuffing than I could use for five large flounder fillets (2 lbs).
