About this Cook
I'm a high school math teacher and the mother of four children...boy 1=19.5, boy 2=17, boy 3 = 15, girl = 12. I like to keep busy, am good with my hands, spend tons of time watching movies (hate regular tv programming). I teach in a boys high school and have a way with these young men. My father loved to cook. He worked on the Andrea Doria (on it even when it sank) as a waiter so he was constantly exposed to food and raised me to be open-minded and well mannered. My mother is an artist. Put the two together along with the precision of mathematics and you may find me baking something beautiful and detailed. I think presentation is everything. I'm particularly concerned with being healthy and eating a well-balanced diet. I don't forego sweets however (life is too short). I go to the gym regularly and figure if I'm not sweating there isn't any point to the excercise :)
My favorite things to cook
Sweet things are generally my favorite. I also love cooking with cream, butter, garlic, olive oil, lemon, ginger....the list goes on.

Baba Ghanoush
I love this and so do my children. I never seem to have sesame seeds handy but I follow the rest of the instructions and have no problems. Also, I didn't pierce my eggplant but I found that it does NOT explode (as someone else had said).

Sugar Cookie Icing
Great color, dries nice and hard and isn't transparent. I used a brush to "paint" it on my sugar cookies....they were eye catching!
