I'm a new mom who loves to cook for her family. I'm always looking to try something new, and different but that is healthy too. I love to see what my son likes to eat now that he is eating solid foods. It's so much fun cooking for him.
My favorite things to cook
I love to cook soups, Italian foods, hor d'ouvres, BBQ. I especially love to cook for Super Bowl parties. I'm working on cake decorating right now.
My favorite family cooking traditions
I love cooking for Thanksgiving and Christmas. My mom and dad both worked while I was growing up so Christmas dinner usually was lasagne or stuffed shells, and I love still doing a smaller Christmas dinner, but I'm also looking forward to having my children help me cook.
My cooking triumphs
Making Thai cocnut chicken soup, and Thai fried noodles, and having my husband (he is a sailor) tell me it tastes just as good as what he would get in Thailand while on port calls.
My cooking tragedies
Macroons at Christmas time. They turned into one big coconut, sweetened condensed milk mush.
