My favorite family cooking traditions
My mother cooked a "traditional" meal almost every day, and I loved spending time with her in the kithcen. I used to call her when she was at work when I was little for cooking advice.
My cooking triumphs
I've made a lot of bomb meals lately.
My cooking tragedies
I can't seem to get Baked Potato Soup right. I keep burning the flour. :?

Zucchini Patties
I grated the first zucchini and realized that it was a waste of time because they were so wet. So I chopped the zucchini very thinly instead. I removed onions because I hate them, but I think some garlic would have added nicely to this recipe. I'm going to attempt to bake them next time. I used olive oil, but they still had that fried taste instead of accentuating the vegetable. I will use this as an appetizer the next time I have guests over!

Broccoli Cheese Soup
It came out alright. I think the Chicken Broth made it too watery, as I traditionally like thicker broccoli cheese. Nothing to write home about, but still a great base soup if you're bored and looking for something to warm you up in the winter. (PS - I used way too much Garlic Powder, be careful it can ruin the recipe.)

Baked Potato Soup V
Wow! This was incredible! At first when I had the butter, flour and milk I didn't think that it was going to be thick enough. But then I added the sour cream and cheese and it came out amazing! A+
