I try to incorporate a new herb, spice or ingrediant every week. Knoepla soup Cabbage rolls Cream cheese cookies Won Tons Stir fry spicy shrimp Lefse Teaching as I cook, so many memories flood when I cook a traditional cousine. my kids rave over my "slush" burgers My own recipe for cream cheese spice cake. I make an awesome homemade, BBQ sauce. Misreading recipes, I need to SLLLOOOOOWWW down when I am cooking!
