About this Cook
I'm a mom, and I work part time and I'm going back to school. I love to cook, but my family can't eat dairy, so it's hard for me to cook some of my favorite dishes.
My favorite things to cook
Any chicken dish, veggie soup, lately Asian and Mexican dishes, pasta sauces, fish (i do live in new england after all!), cakes and cookies (when I get in the mood).
My favorite family cooking traditions
We have a few things that we make every holiday, like Easter is always Polish cuisine, and xmas we always make date squares, fudge, and peanutbutter balls.
My cooking triumphs
I made french onion soup for the first time a few weeks ago..it came out amazing.
My cooking tragedies
One time I made a HUGE pot of red clam chowder..and I added way too much red pepper flakes..it was so spicy it made me choke. I had to throw the whole pot away. It was a nightmare..I cried. Also, I recently tried to make Tres Leche cake..It came out so bad, it actually made me sick. I threw up all night.

Brown Sugar Meatloaf
I used bread crumbs instead of saltines, just because I didn't have any. The texture was fine, but it wasn't very flavorful, and it was very thick and dense. I like my meatloaf a little lighter. Also, my family decided that we don't like cooked ketchup. Every time I try to make something with a ketchup topping, none of us like it. So I've vowed never to try that aspect again. It wasn't a terrible recipe, it just wasn't our favorite. But then again, we don't have a favorite meatloaf....so maybe it's just us :)

Sausage Balls
Great recipe! I followed the instructions exactly, however it was missing one piece of information. THe first time I made these, I prepared the bisquit mix, like made it wet. The recipe came out terrible. But it was my fault, because you're suposed to add the mix dry :) heh. They came out great the second time! I serve them with ranch dressing that has a little horseradish and a little paprika mixed in. Yum!

Salisbury Steak
Awesome recipe! The only change I made was that, like someone suggested, I doubled the gravy and added a packet of Lipton Onion soup mix to the gravy mixture. My husband and daughter loved it.
