I am a wife and a mother of 5 wonderful children.My husband has 2 and I have 3. Not quite 8 is enough but close. I like to cook, it calms me and makes me happy.Having friends over and fixing food for them is lots of fun for me.
My favorite things to cook
In the summer time I like to make different types of salads, while my husband grills. Chickend enchiladas, stirfrys are favorites of mine. I also like to cook dishes from my home country, Scotland.
My favorite family cooking traditions
My mother used to make her Christmas cakes and Clootie Dumplings, around the holidays, every year. I'm still trying to figure out how to make the Clootie Dumpling and have it come out right.
My cooking triumphs
I feel pretty proud that I learned how to make haggis without some of the original ingredients in it. More people are willing to try it and most like it. Yeah!!
My cooking tragedies
I'm not the greatest at cooking things on the grill. I've had too much chicken come off of there, not cooked completely, or I've over cooked things.
