About this Cook
I love cooking but have discovered in the last year that I love baking even more! I wish I had more time to do it but going to school and working takes most of my free time right now.
My favorite things to cook
Anything that is quick, easy, and ends with a tasty result.
My favorite family cooking traditions
At Christmas when I was growing up, making fudge was a family affair. We took turns stirring the candy, and then "licking" the kettle.
My cooking tragedies
Trying to make my mom's pizza dough - I can't get it down to a science. Sometimes it comes out great, other times it comes out cooked on the outside and gooey on the inside. I have started using Pillsbury crescent pizza dough, it is good, just not the same.

Garden Veggie Pizza Squares
I topped mine with broccoli and chopped carrots. this was delicious! Everyone loved it. Next time I think I will shred the carrots instead of chop them though as they were a bit hard to keep on the pieces. Excellent recipe!

Garden Pasta Salad
I omitted the green pepper and only put in about half of a bottle of dressing. This was a huge hit at our BBQ.

Chocolate Rum Cake
My co-workers loved this! I made it for someone's birthday who requested a chocolate rum cake. I knew she liked coconut and since it was the only kind of rum I had handy, I used it in the cake and for the drizzle. Don't miss out on the topping, it totally makes the cake! I put chopped walnuts and coconut in the bottom of the baking flute before baking and also some on top after adding the drizzle - it was a smash hit and everyone is waiting for the next birthday to roll around to have some more!
