Hello All, I'm so glad to have found this site and am now a member. I'm a 50+ happy gal that loves my work, cooking, hanging with my friends and life partner. There is nothing I like better than baking and cooking on cold fall/winter day. My neighbors come over just to see what they are going to get to eat. I look at life as an adventure, I try not to waste day light and keep a positive attitude 90% of the time. Have a great day!
My favorite things to cook
I really like to bake. yeast and sweet breads are my favorite. I just made my first Chocolate Cheese cake and I find that I enjoyed it very much and the recipe I followed was the bomb. However, I try new things constantly.
My favorite family cooking traditions
My kids come over for the easiest of all meals and that is my Pot Roast with potatoes and carrots. Also my homemade eggrolls
My cooking triumphs
Homemade Filipino eggrolls. I learned when I was a girl and have put my touchs to them over the years. The problem is, my recipe makes about 100 and while getting rid of them has never been a problem, the calories are. I hope to put my recipe on here soon. Let me know how you like them. (I know, I know, I could cut the recipe down but once you try them, there is no way you will want to make any less. :)
My cooking tragedies
I made an Indian recipe once for the first time and served it to guests... big mistake, BIG mistake. They were all kind thank goodness. Oh one other thing. Grilled zucchini is fabulous but don't ever try grilled cucumber.
