About this Cook
Just a mid-girl from the land of corn! I love spending time with my family. BUT my passion is baking! I think that it is a good stress reliever for me. Not to mention i am a people-pleaser. So it is nice to make something for somebody and have them ABSOLUTELY love it!
My favorite things to cook
pastries, pastries OH and more pastries. I also like to do anything different and out of the ordinary. If they say it can't be made...believe you me I will do it!
My favorite family cooking traditions
You know I really don't have any. I do however, every Christmas, love drinking some wine and making cookies with the family!
My cooking tragedies
Just ask my husband I'm sure he'll give you plenty of stories..lol!

Truck-Stop Buttermilk Pancakes
YUMMIE!!! This makes a whole lot of pancakes!!! Which was fine with me. I just bag them and put them in the freezer for the kids during the week! In some of the pancakes I added choco chips, blueberries and cinnamon/applesauce mixture! This recipe is definitely a keeper!!! I didn't have any buttermilk...so i just added lemon to some milk and there u go! Thank You!

Italian Meatball Sandwich Casserole
My kids loved it...I thought it wasn't bad...my husband couldn't stand it! So there you have it!! I did toast the bread first before cutting up. I didn't use mayo, instead i used half ricotta/cream cheese mixture with an egg in it! I added lots of cheese to it...so it tasted good, just not quite what i expected. My husband said he'd rather have the sandwich version...men, i tell ya! lol

Good Old Fashioned Pancakes
WOW...this makes a WHOLE lot of pancakes..which is good!! I just placed leftovers in freezer ziploc bags...the girls take them out during the week for a quick breakfast! I only tweaked a little...I used self-rising flour and I added a dash of vanilla. I also alternated choco chips in them in 1 batch, blueberries in the next...then the rest plain for my husband! Keeper..this is way better than boxed pancake mix!!
