About this Cook
I live in beautiful Lexington, KY with my husband plus a houseful of pets.
My favorite things to cook
By far, desserts!
My favorite family cooking traditions
Huge family get togethers with my Italian family (my mother is from Italy and has 19 siblings!)
My cooking triumphs
Mastering the perfect fresh carrot cake.
My cooking tragedies
When I first started cooking, I thought it would be a great idea to marinate chicken overnight in what I thought were fajita seasonings. These seasonings included about a half cup of fresh lemon/lime juice. I wound up with chicken ceviche. GROSS!

Refrigerator Pickles
These are really good and so easy to make. I left out the bell pepper because I didn't have any and I don't really like it anyway. I don't even like sweet pickles and these are terrific! Thanks for the recipe.

Grandma's Tomato Soup
This is great! Nearly as easy as opening a can of the condensed stuff, but much better and tastier. I also substituted milk for the water in the recipe. Excellent lunch with a grilled cheese sandwich and fresh fruit. Thanks! I will definitely make this again.

Holiday Chicken Salad
This is fantastic! I love chicken salad and this has to be one of the best I've ever tried. I didn't change anything except omitted the bell peppers because I don't like them and used Jane's Crazy Salt because I was out of seasoned salt. An excellent way to use up leftover roast chicken! Thanks for the recipe :)
