I'm a mom and a working artist. When I have time to cook, I love experimenting, but most of the time, it's the old standby recipes
My favorite things to cook
fresh fruit pies, salads, stir fry
My favorite family cooking traditions
rosemary, lemon and garlic turkey for Thanksgiving
My cooking triumphs
One entire Thanksgiving dinner done by me, with perfect timing. Everything was done at the same time, and it all turned out really tasty.
My cooking tragedies
My first attempt at an Easter dinner for friends (I was 22) and I made a fresh strawberry pie, but mistakenly substituted corn syrup for corn starch. It was terribly sweet and runny. yuk
