About this Cook
i love to eat more than anyone i have ever met. really.
My favorite things to cook
i like to cook things that are simple but fun!
My favorite family cooking traditions
making tamales in my mom's small kitchen...with the women of the family gathered around the table folding tamales and gossiping.
My cooking triumphs
i make killer scrambled eggs. people always laugh at me when i say this, but they are really amazing. when people have them they always comment that they are the best eggs they've ever had.
My cooking tragedies
i can't make mac & cheese from scratch to save my life! the sauce always comes out too thin or too think :( help!

Simple White Cake
YUM! i made a dozen perfect cupcakes! great recipe! i only had self rising flour so i didnt use any baking soda....still came out great. perfect browning, perfect light cakes, moist. if you have a dense cake, you probably over mixed your batter...just mix it until combined and walk away! i will use this recipe forever!

White Chocolate Fruit Tart
wooo hoo!! what a great dessert! i got so many compliments when i brought this to a gathering after work...people even had thirds! the only thing i did different was that i added different fruit. you can get away with making half of the glaze, it made A LOT.

Zucchini Bread IV
i used this recipe for my first try at zucchini bread and it was great!! the only thing i did different is that i added more cinnmon...it made enough to share with co-workers and they all really enjoyed it. next time i'll try swapping out the oil for some apple sauce...but for the first go, i had to make the real thing. LOVED IT!
