My favorite things to cook
I love seafood so my favorite recipe is shrimp and/or sea scallops wrapped in bacon and coated w/BBQ sauce and then grilled. EXCELLENT!! I also love steamed Maryland crabs!
My favorite family cooking traditions
Every New Years Eve my husband prepares a feast that starts early in the day while preparing the food that will last thru the evening usually consisting of a mix of seafood and beef; only one requirement for the evening, all food must be GRILLED. We start w/shrimp and/or scallops wrapped in bacon then smothered w/BBQ sauce; then main course of lobster tails and filet mignon. Since we don't "do" New Years Eve out, we usually invite a few good friends over for the festivities!
My cooking tragedies
At age 20 and not having much experience in the kitchen, I baked my first 2 whole chicken upside down, yikes!
