About this Cook
I've really just started enjoying cooking in the past few years, and have started getting more adventurous with ingredients, revising recipes, etc. I love entertaining, mostly because I enjoy getting compliments on my cooking!
My favorite things to cook
Desserts (with my kids); meatloaf/hamburgers (always experimenting with different kinds); Appetizers/dips - have made many from this site
My favorite family cooking traditions
Meatloaf, rum cake, banana nut bread - have used basic family recipes and made changes over the years
My cooking triumphs
Awesome filet mignon and baked scallops dinner - hubby's favorite
My cooking tragedies
Mini meatloaves (not from this site) - resembled dogfood

Chicken Piccata with Artichoke Hearts
This was delicious! My husband and 14-year old son liked it a lot too. I followed it exactly. I used sauvignon blanc for the white wine and smart balance for the butter (and also added this when browning the chicken in olive oil). For ease, I used a plastic bag to dredge the chicken. For color, I sprinkled some fresh chopped parsley on top (otherwise, it's not the most attractive dish).

Golden Rum Cake
I made this exactly as the recipe was written and it was awesome! I used Bacardi gold in the batter and the glaze. This was so easy and so delicious!

Easy Chicken Marsala
This was really good and really easy! My husband (who didn't want me to make it because he thought he didn't like chicken marsala) loved it! I followed some other reviewer's tips and made a couple minor adjustments. I pounded the chicken breasts flat in a plastic bag, then shook in another plastic bag to coat with flour and garlic powder. I sauteed chicken in olive oil. I made about three times the amount of sauce (so we'd have enough to put over rice also). I used sweet onions instead of green onions, omitted milk, and used about twice as much marsala as cream. Will try with fat free half/half next time to reduce fat.
