My favorite things to cook
All things. Love baking and experimenting with strong flavors. Mexican, Italian, Asian, etc, etc, etc
My favorite family cooking traditions
Thanksgiving giant smorsgasbord, and Christmas baking.
My cooking triumphs
Many. I think everytime new recipe makes it into my book means a new triumph. I really like it when a new cheesecake falvor turns out.
My cooking tragedies
Oh gosh, many. Accidentally mixing in my lemon zest and juice into the cream cheese and milk mixture one time (for a cheesecake), or making my first turkey ever when I was 18 and thought I would "slow roast" it in the oven with bourbon, and it was undercooked and slimy. Blah!
