About this Cook
I love to cook and have been using Allrecipes for over 10 years. I am a brand new mom at a ripe old age and am loving it! I have a wonderful husband who is my rock. My son and my husband keep me grounded and remind me of what is most important in this world.
My favorite things to cook
I love to cook anything...Chicken Cordon Bleu, Filet Mignon, roast chicken, turky, you name it and I'll do it.
My favorite family cooking traditions
I love all my family recipes. I love to create memories with food. My guests remember the meals that I have made for them and what a compliment that is.
My cooking triumphs
Make a Julia Childs Brownie Bombe at the tender age of 13! My cooking and baking skills continue to improve and Julia remains an inspiration to me.
My cooking tragedies
Making a family favorite of Round Steak with gravy. I attempted to refine the flavors and in the end it was a salt lick!

The Best Rolled Sugar Cookies
This is EXCELLENT! I made the dough yesterday and chilled it overnight. I used an extra teaspoon of vanilla to intesify the vanilla flavor, the remainder of the recipe I followed exactly. I kept the dough in the fridge as I took out sections to roll. I rolled out the sections of dough on parchment (stuck a tiny bit of dough to a cutting board then parchment on top, helps to keep it in place) powder sugared the parchment lightly and the rolling pin. It rolled out easily and very smooth. I transferred cut outs to parchment lined baking sheet and decorated with colored sugar. I then put the whole sheet back in the refrigerator for about 10 minutes. I baked one sheet at a time at 350(convection setting)for 5 minutes and then turned them around for another 5. I let them cool on a wire rack and transferred them to a storage container. They are perfect! Lightly golden brown, soft on middle slighty crisp on the outside. I love love love this recipe!!!

Busy Day Barbeque Brisket
So good! I used the suggestion of another reviewer and put the liquid smoke/dry rub on the night before. The brisket was so tender. I will make this again but with one change, I will use about half as much cayenne pepper. This is just a personal preference.

Brown Sugar Smokies
So yummy! They were gobbled up in minutes and requested again by all. I served them with a honey mustard dipping sauce. I took the reccomendation of coating the bacon in the brown sugar and then wrapping the smokie.
