About this Cook
I love to cook! I love this recipe mecca. I'm a mother of two and birth doula. I hope my kids grow up talking about their favorite dishes I would make :.)
My favorite things to cook
Any dessert. I'm still learning a lot, but I'm really coming around on my desserts. I'm still not patient enough to make a perfect soup. I'm finding patience is key to being a good cook.
My favorite family cooking traditions
Christmas day cinnamon rolls and Thanksgiving spoon bread & Frost Me Nots.
My cooking triumphs
I make a delicious strawberry cream cake. I found the recipe in Cooks Illustrated.
My cooking tragedies
Soups. I still make em'. I'd really like to learn how to make a good base.

Didn't make any changes....delicious! I'm pregnant with my third and cooking dinner each night has been a total drag... this recipe was easy, healthy and delicous! Thank you for keeping me afloat in the kitchen :.)

Yowsers...I make these every Christmas morning. I do not use a bread machine either. Just delicious.
