Being in the military has given me a chance to travel and meet people from all over the world in turn experiencing new cuisine and learning new recipe's or variations of one's I already knew. Dips, cakes, cookies, soups,salads(especially potato) stews and anything with layers or lots of mixing. Turkey for all major holidays and a different person is choosen to be in charge of the bird every time so it's never the same, always a unique yet familiar holiday must for me and my family. I'm asked to make mexican dip for every party I attend, it has various names (7 layer, million layer) depending on who is talking about it, also I get asked to make cakes because of my creativity with icing and fondant. I always burn the biscuts!! Never the same recipe, different ovens and times different times of the year I manage to always burn the biscuts.
