About this Cook
37 year old Pharmacy tech that loves to cook but hates to clean up. :) Never married but has a very hungry boyfriend who likes new things to tempt his palette.
My favorite things to cook
Italian food! I cook other styles, but it is by far my favourite type to experiment and have fun with. Since I live in the desert, Mexican-style food is also a close second.
My favorite family cooking traditions
Middle-class what's-ever-in-the-cupboard-type cooking.
My cooking triumphs
I recently made Spinach-Chicken enchiladas entirely from scratch and then prompty wanted to die from the time and mess I made. lol
My cooking tragedies
Who hasn't burned something they were really looking forward to?? I can cook, but I can't seem to bake. Everytime I try to make fresh bread, I ruin it somehow. *shrug* My mom, on the other hand can bake anything and make it taste good! Guess it skipped a generation. hah

Cranberry Pork Chops II
These were just okay, to me, although my boyfriend seemed to enjoy them. I didn't have a pan big enough to cook all 6 porkchops, so I ended up reducing the sauce by simmering for a half-hour and then pouring it over the already fried chops and baking for another 1/2 hour. Eh. There was a lot of jucie still and the cranberries were rather... just...eh.

Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Muffins
Mine didn't taste very good, so we'll put it down to baker-error. They felt like they were missing something (mostly taste).

Bachelor's Creamy Pumpkin Soup
It was easy, I'll give it that, but I really wasn't impressed with it. I'm not sure if I did something wrong or I just don't like pumpkin in a soup. Either way I only half-heartedly finished my bowl and still felt hungry after and the boyfriend didn't care for it much either. Ah well.
