My favorite things to cook
Mexican, Italian and you can beat the good old "steaks on the grill" on Saturday night
My favorite family cooking traditions
My mother was a great southern cook, being born and raised in Nashville. I still use her methods for pot roast, ham and bean soup and corn bread and, of course, black-eyed peas on new years day.
My cooking triumphs
Beef stroganoff is my signature dish.
My cooking tragedies
A christmas goose one year...it ended up in the trash and we had hamburgers for our Christmas dinner.

Gingerbread Boys
I'm not sure what I did wrong but this "dough" never really came together. It was just fine crumbles - sort of pie crust texture. I gathered it together with my hands and made it into a ball and chilled over night as suggested. When the dough finally got warm enough it just fell into big crumbly hunks. There was no way to roll it out and no way to correct it. All those good ingredients went into the trash. I did taste the dough though and that's why I gave it 2 stars - the flavor was wonderful but I don't think I'd take a chance on this recipe again.

As promised, here's my review of Jeff's Sloppy Joes. I made them as written and they are some of the best I've ever had. Thanks for a great recipe Jeff! Trish

Tasty Whole Wheat Bread
I'd give it ten stars if I could. This bread is so good and so easy to make. I wanted to make some whole wheat bread for a friend's 80 something mother - she was kind of craving it. This made two nice loaves a braid and several rolls. The mother "lurved" the bread and my friend even snuck a few slices. I took the braid to the office next day and 12 people managed to plow through a 12" loaf. I'm not a whole wheat fan but this bread has such incredible flavor, crumb, etc. I know I will make it again. Trish
