About this Cook
I am a newlywed that enjoys trying out new recipes.
My favorite things to cook
I love to bake. Mostly cookies and cakes. I also enjoy baking breads. I enjoy slow cooking and casseroles as well.

Growing up I have fond memories of baking Christmas cookies with my mother and aunt.
My cooking triumphs
I baked cookies as presents for everyone last Christmas. Everyone loves my snicker doodles.
My cooking tragedies
My last try of making a chocolate chip bread expanded into the rest of bread machine making a huge mess. It still tasted good.

Tomato-Cream Sauce for Pasta
Just not for us. Tried it out, but my husband and I didn't like it. Pulsed it in the blender to get a smoother sauce, but even with some extra hot sauce in it my husband didn't want to eat it.

Italian Bread Using a Bread Machine
Followed the instructions. Bread stuck to bottom of the baking sheet. Will grease it and use cornmeal just in case next time. Was not as wonderful as other reviewers raved about. It was missing something that the store bought bread has. **Note cut deeply. My bread rose in the oven and the slit closed on itself. If you think you cut too deep you might still not have cut deep enough.

Oat Applesauce Muffins
Missing that special something. Too plain. Thought it would be nice to have a healthier breakfast, but not if no one wanted to eat it.
