I am a grandmother that enjoys cooking for family and friends. Athough I travel 46 weeks of of the year, I look forward to getting home to my husband and my stove...and in that order!
My favorite things to cook
I enjoy cooking huge pots of food, after which I can and freeze for my husband's meals while I travel with my job.
My favorite family cooking traditions
Mom had dibs on Thanksgiving. She loved the huge feast and getting all of the family together for which she did all of the cooking.
My cooking triumphs
I would have to say that I even impressed myself when I made SWEET POTATO CHEESECAKE. It looked like a picture out of a magazine and my husband ooh-ed and ah-ed with every bite.
My cooking tragedies
As a young cook, I learned that you should never empty the last part of the bag of thawing french fries to hot grease. With this experience, I did learn how to take my oven apart to clean it, so it was not a complete tragedy!
