About this Cook
I live near Cleveland and all of my favorite hobbies are a bit.. sedetary. Baking, crocheting, reading, and vidja games. Also I'm a terrible cook but I can bake like a champ.
My favorite things to cook
Baking anything that others will enjoy. I'm actually not a big fan of cookies or cakes (all sweet and no bite save gingerbreads), but everyone else around me is and I seem to bake well.
My favorite family cooking traditions
Christmas cookies. We go crazy and scour for more cookie recipes every December. Butter press to deep fried, we lurve Christmas cookies.
My cooking triumphs
I finally learned this summer how to make pancakes! Eggs I can cook. For some reason I fail at pancakes.
My cooking tragedies
Most every other batch of pancakes.

Caramel Brownies III
Super good, super cheap, super easy. Everyone loves them. Put a brownie in a bowl and microwave for 5 seconds (no more), add a scoop of vanilla ice cream, and taste the magic unfold! No joke. Amazing.

Blueberry Drop Cookies
Cooks Illustrated has a blueberry scone recipe that is a little tricky. This cookie recipe makes a cookie that is identical to the scones but a whole lot easier and, most importantly, more numerous!! They're delicious. I followed the recipe exactly, and before baking, I sprinkled a little turbinado sugar on the cookies for that crunchy top. I also sprinkled a little nutmeg on some of them which was very good, but the cookies were just as delicious without. I only made a few and put the rest of the dough back in the fridge so I can have fresh ones whenever necessary for the next few days!!

Creamy Au Gratin Potatoes
Wonderful!! This was my first attempt at potatoes au gratin, and I am quite proud of the results. I made them almost exactly as described, but I did cut up the onion instead of leaving it as rings. To the people that cooked the onion first afraid of it being raw: it's going into a 400F oven for 90 mins, it WILL get cooked. My cheese did separate, but I think that's just the cheese I chose. I took the foil off with 20mins to go for the browned top. Super delicious.
