I'm a music teacher and love what I do, but...if I had to make a career change I would want to become a chef!
My favorite things to cook
I love to cook savory dishes, especially using fresh vegetables. I really enjoy stir frys, grilled vegetables, and salads. I'm not much of a baker, but I'd love to learn!
My favorite family cooking traditions
My grandmother taught me how to make her fabulous pies, although I'm still not very good at making the crust. I'm so thankful that I took the time to spend with her and learn while I still could.
My cooking triumphs
Wonderful stir frys with fresh vegetables, and an incredible pumpkin cheesecake (Paula Deen's recipe) at Thanksgiving last year, and some super cabbage rolls!!!
My cooking tragedies
Hmm...none yet...except resorting to Hamburger Helper for the first year or so of married life. Thank goodness I've seen the light!
