Iam a married working mother of two great kids, I like to cook and come up with new twists to things!!

My favorite things to cook

Im a huge pasta fan and love spicy food especially mexican i have been cooking a lot more this last year and my family most of the time raves over my cooking and recently i have been bitten by the baking bug..cakes, brownies and cookies:-)

My favorite family cooking traditions

every since i was a little girl our family meals were a feast to say the least and now that i host my own get togethers i carry on that tradition noone leaves my house hungry!!

My cooking triumphs

anytime family or friends comment on my food and enjoy it!! That's the biggest triumph of them all:-)

My cooking tragedies

Apple Squares

I made this tonight and we enjoyed it .. I doubled the recipe to bake in a 9 by 13 inch pan added around one and a half cups of a granny smith apple however I did not double the sugar I added approx 1 1/4 cups total and the end result was plenty sweet.. I also made a quick glaze .. Very good thanks for an easy treat :-)

Grandpa Hubbard's Oatmeal

Oh my this was the best oatmeal I have ever had!! Here's what I did instead of mixing in the individual bowls I made it all in the pot I used reg milk as I didn't have creamer although I will try the flavored kind next time I did add some apples that I chopped and cooked with two tablespoons butter and brown sugar and a dash of cinnamon oh I also added in a spoon of peanut better and a teaspoon of vanilla so good was on table in less than ten minutes I have never made homemade oatmeal just usually do the small packets but never again this was simple and can be altered easily for different flavors the family loved it!! My husband agrees this is the best oatmeal ever thank you for shareing the recipe:)
