About this Cook
I have three children ages 22....... 14...... and 5 months. I also am a gramma to a beautiful 15 month old boy. I love to cook (especially baking) and I love taking care of my family. I'm always looking for new ways to entertain the kids and new recipes to feed them.
My favorite things to cook
I love to bake. Anything in the crockpot is great. I also love Mexican food and Pasta dishes.
My favorite family cooking traditions
Making a big Sunday dinner. It's something that has been a tradition since I was a little girl. I can remember my mom being in the kitchen all day slow cooking her Italian specialties like chicken cacciatore or pasta with meatballs & sausage. The fresh homemade tomato sauce can't be beat.
My cooking triumphs
I made a three tier cake for my sisters wedding. It was the middle of August and I was so worried it would be disastrous, but it turned out great.

Mama's Italian Wedding Soup
I made this yesterday (on a cold and SNOWY October day in Boston). It was so good and warming. I used acini di pepe for the pasta and added garlic to my meatballs. Can't wait for lunch!!

Apple Crisp II
Delicious! I follwed recipe and it was so sweet and yummy. I forgot to buy ice cream so I topped with a bit of flavored coffee creamer (pumpkin spice flavor). We had it for dessert last night and when I got up this morning the entire pan was gone!! My kids loved it.

Glazed Meatloaf II
The BEST meatloaf I have ever had. I made the recipe as stated and my daughter was freaking out when I added lemon juice, but the whole family really enjoyed it (My year old son and two year old grandson, especially). Very good thank you.
