I've been married to the same wonderful man for many years and have one son, who's age we won't discuss. I learned a lot about cooking while working for a catering business and thoroughly enjoying being in the kitchen.
My favorite things to cook
Anything containing seafood. It is so easy to buy seafood here and we have so many good Cajun and Creole seafood recipes it's a shame not to cook seafood often.
My favorite family cooking traditions
The holidays!!! We put on a large spread ranging from soup to desserts. Everyone seems to have a different favorite so we make sure there is enough for everyone, the table groans with platters, casseroles, vegetables and side dishes.
My cooking triumphs
Crab cakes, turkey with oyster stuffing, stuffed merlitons, shrimp alfredo
My cooking tragedies
My first time cooking chicken and dumplings. My husband wanted to help so I asked him to cut the dumplings. He make them too small...so small my brother-in-law asked the name of the chicken and oyster recipe!!! Blush!!!
