About this Cook
I'm an Irish girl who knows a thing or two about great Italian Food. I live with my husband and our French Bulldog, and work in NYC as an administrative assistant.
My favorite things to cook
My absolute favorite meal of the day is breakfast. On my days off, I love to have a real morning breakfast, pancakes or waffles or french toast or omelets.
My favorite family cooking traditions
When I was a child, I used to help my mother make meatballs. We're an American family of Irish descent, but we lived in a predominantly Italian neighborhood. It was wonderful.
My cooking triumphs
I make a mean marinara sauce, and an awesome lasagne. I also make great desserts, like pumpkin pie, and really good Irish soda bread.
My cooking tragedies
Haven't really had any as of yet. The only thing I can think of is using too much salt on occasion.

Slow Cooker Pulled Pork
I wanted to make pulled pork for a July 4th BBQ. My husband told me I would need a smoker. Not really having the room for(or funds to buy) a smoker, I came to Allrecipes looking for something I could make with my crockpot. Saw this recipe and had to try it. I used pork butt, Barq's and seasoned the meat with salt & pepper. Bought some sauce from a local BBQ joint and served it on slider rolls. It was heaven! The best part is that it seems as if you slaved over it for hours, but really it doesn't take much effort at all (especially if your husband does the pulling);). You should keep in mind that the pork will cook down. I bought 5lbs of pork for 20 people. We only had about 13 and there was only a tiny bit of it left after the party. I made this again last night, cause I didn't get enough on the 4th! Can't wait until tonight's dinner!
