I have been married to Paul for 43 years. We have two children and five grandchildren. We have a 3 year old Lhasa Apso named Melody.
My favorite things to cook
Roast Leg of Lamb with roasted potatoes, Spinach Pie (Pita), English Muffin Loaf
My favorite family cooking traditions
Every Christmas I bake English muffin loaf and make jars of strawberry rhubarb jam to give out to family and friends. It is not unusual to pass out twenty or more !
My cooking triumphs
I guess I would have to say that when preparing a big dinner, I am happy when everything is cooked and hot and ready to serve at the same time.
My cooking tragedies
When my husband and I first got married, I cooked fresh broccoli. He came in the room and asked what I was cooking. I said to lift the cover......he again asked what it was. I had cut the tops off and threw them away and only cooked the (tough) stems. Still funny today ! !
