About this Cook
I'm retired and now have time to spend in the kitchen. I have taken several cooking classes that have helped me enormously.
My favorite things to cook
I love Mexican food and can follow directions, so..... I experiment quite a bit. Unfortunately, I'm the only one who like Mexican food (DH only likes Taco Bell)
My favorite family cooking traditions
When my mother was alive, we would make Zagareliai or Krustai (a light, fried pastry covered with powder sugar- a Lithuanian tradition ) for Christmas.
My cooking triumphs
I actually made a Chinese dish that was better than what we had in a restaurant.
My cooking tragedies
I lost the above recipe!

Baked Potato Skins
These were fantastic and the most sought after items at the Super Bowl party. Very flavorul. Just as good if not better than one of our local chain restaurants'. Thanks for a great recipe!

Garlic Cheese Bread
We made this twice now in the past 2 days. The first day I used bolillos- soft rolls. They were very tasty but DH said that he wanted crisper bread. The 2nd time I used a crusty french bread and toasted it. DH said it was perfect (and he's not a real bread fan) I used approximate proportions and it only made enough for half a french loaf. I liked them both ways- very tasty. Thank you!

Flatlander Chili
I made this with one addition- about 2 TBS of chopped pickled jalapeno for added zing. FABULOUS! DH and I loved it. It didn't have the overpowering chili powder taste. Oh, and I thickened it up a bit with some masa flour as was previously suggested. Thanks for our new favorite chili!!!!
