As 4-H member for 10 years, and by watching my mom cook for our large family, I consider myself to have had a wonderful home-cooking education! Anything my husband loves... Homemade noodles with fresh chicken and mashed potatoes for Sunday dinner. My first attempt at Pavlova was a success! A New Zealand coworker first introduced me to this wonderful dessert. As a mother of a child with food allergies, sometimes cooking for all of us is difficult. My worst... Trying to bake a wheat, egg, peanut-free birthday cake for my son. The egg replacer is so different from real eggs. I tried 3 cakes. All had great flavor, but were flat as pancakes!
