From The Blog:  I love this site but...
About this Cook
I love allrecipes. It's my go-to-site for everything I cook or bake. It's also a community of people I trust who care-about food and other people. This is the 1st site I go to in the morning and retreat to all day long.
My favorite things to cook
I do not eat desserts but i love to bake for others. If I had to pick a favorite thing to cook it would be pasta.
My favorite family cooking traditions
When my mother was alive we would all get together every Wednesday for dinner but every week was someone elses turn to cook.
My cooking triumphs
I have several "signature dishes" that I have made up over the years.
My cooking tragedies
I am terrible at making instant mashed potatoes. I don't know why because the directions are so simple. Its a shame too because I love them.

I am so glad I found this. I have been trying to eat breakfast everyday so I can add this to the list of very few things I can eat and enjoy in the morning as well as for snack. Easy too!
