I am a stay at home mother of 3 beautiful little kids 2 girls and 1 boy, ages 3, 4 and 5 months. I love to learn new things and in cooking, there is always something new to learn. I also love to play pool (even though I am not that good at it), go swimming and throw family get-togethers.
My favorite things to cook
I like to cook different desserts. My husband has a big sweet tooth so he is my guinea pig.
My favorite family cooking traditions
I come from Hawaii, and there are so many different varieties of foods, anywhere from philipino foods to a roasted pig. We would get our BIG family together for a couple of days on the beach and my grandfather and my cousins would go out and hunt down a pig and slow roast the pig whole over a pit for hours, It is sooo good! And on Thanksgiving, we would cook a turkey wrapped in tea leaves underground, you haven't had a turkey until u tasted this turkey!!! It's incredible!
My cooking triumphs
My dad used to love to cook, he was a chef in the military. So one day when I was young, I decided to try and do one of his recipes all by myself....it was a break through, I felt like I accomplished something GREAT!!!
My cooking tragedies
I baked a big beautiful cake for one of my family get togethers and it looked so good! As I was bringing it out to the family, it fell!
