About this Cook
I am stay at home mom of four kids. I love to cook and try new recipes. I also like to read and play games with my kids.
My favorite things to cook
I love pasta, and will attempt almost any pasta dish. I also like finding and making new recipes that my kids will actually eat!
My favorite family cooking traditions
None so far.
My cooking triumphs
It took me a long time to perfect a recipe for pasta salad. Now I have a basic recipe that is so good and I can substitute ingredients based on what I have on hand or what sounds good.
My cooking tragedies
My first try at potato salad. Awful. My husband still teases me, even though I have made great potato salads since then!

Garlic Croutons
These are excellent and so easy I won't be buying croutons at the store ever again!

Rich and Creamy Tomato Basil Soup
I thought this was just ok. I didn't have enough heavy cream, so I used 3/4 cup cream and 1/4 cup milk. Other than that, I followed the recipe exactly. My kids said it tasted like pizza sauce, but they ate it! I might try it again with some modifications to better fit our tastes.

Bow Tie Pasta with Broccoli, Garlic, and Lemon
This was really good. I added chicken and green onions. My whole family gobbled it up!
