About this Cook
I have been in the Real Estate Industry almost 30 years. I guess this puts me in the dinosaur category. I have always loved to cook and try new recipes. Anytime I am having a party I have the reliable recipes, but there are always the "experimental" ones on the table! I am always on the search for those OUTSTANDING recipes. I have found this to be one of my most visted webites and have told all my friends about it. I have found some of the best recipes on this site!! Over the years I have been putting a cookbook together of my favorite recipes and hope to publish it one day for my friends and family.
My favorite things to cook
My favorite is probably main dishes. I love to experiment with all types of recipes.
My favorite family cooking traditions

My cooking triumphs
Anytime someone enjoys something I have made.
My cooking tragedies
For my first Thanksgiving leaving the package of giblets while baking the bird. Oops!

Sauteed Mushrooms
I use the buttermilk dry ranch pkg most of the time, not realizing it is smaller than a regular ranch pkg. That could make a difference in the saltiness.

Braised Beef Short Ribs
These were pretty good, added 1/2 cup Chianti red wine and the gravy was excellent. I only make short ribs once in awhile, easier just to do a roast. Going to try broth mixture over a roast next time, made a great gravy. Short ribs just have way to much fat and then you have to cool and skim off the fat, too much effort!! Good recipe! thanks for sharing. One of the better short rib recipes

Asian Style Country Ribs
Marinated mine over night, and used low sodium soy, not bad, still a tad salty and might marinade longer to get more flavor. I would cut back some on the soy. I liked them better than my husband, but then again, he is finicky. Meat was nice and tender but I bet on the grill would be the best!
