That is me!
About this Cook
I have lived in North Carolina, Ohio, Tennessee, New Jersey, and now Wisconsin. It has well rounded me in food. I am not picky. Will try anything. And I love to make same old comfort food with a little gourmet touch.
My favorite things to cook
Italian. Living in NJ for most of my teen years has placed Italian food close in my heart. I have such a passion for Italian.
My favorite family cooking traditions
Cookies at Christmas. Going to Nana's in North Carolina when I was little helping make Biscuits and Gravy and flouring the beef for Salisbury Steak.
My cooking triumphs
Making my own sugar cookie recipe making Santa's with royal icing as Christmas presents. Decorated down to the rosy cheeks and gold belt buckle. I had a friend call asking if Martha Stewart was out of jail!
My cooking tragedies
Spending hours and hours of making fresh pasta and filling for ravioli and put them in the pot of water while they separated. I cried!

Hawaiian Sweet Bread
I have never made bread before... It was so sticky I kept adding flour so I could work with it. It turned out very dense but the flavor was good. I decided to to serve with my Thanksgiving dinner but froze it and I made some stuffing with it and bread pudding.

Creamed Green Beans
This was really good. I forgot the cheese before I put on the breadcrumbs and had to put it on top and I am so mad I did that because the cheese was not cheesy it was more hard.... however I didn't use cornflakes I used a mixture of panko bread crumbs and French fried onions

Maple Roast Turkey and Gravy
I would give this 5 stars but the gravy was too sweet for my taste and my guest. It sucked because we were all looking forward to mashed potatoes with savory gravy but it was more thickened maple syrup. I will make the turkey like this again but will opt out the gravy.
