About this Cook
I'm a computer technician for Apple Computer, and my wife stays at home with our new daughter and our other two four-legged children (dogs). We both love cooking, but she actually studied it in school.
My favorite things to cook
Anything.
My cooking triumphs
Tons of them, too many to count.
My cooking tragedies
An Apple Cake, where instead of a teaspoon and a half of baking soda, I put in a cup and a half. It was the first time my wife met my family when we were going out. Her Peanut Butter Cup Cheesecake was a hit; mine made hers look even better. ;-)

Healthy Garden Salad
This was a HUGE hit!! This was absolutely wonderful. I loved this salad. I made it exact, but I liked the suggestion of adding red onion. I will do that next time. I might add some more veggies too, like zucchini. But, it was spectacular and I've now added it to my cookbook!!!

Peanut Butter Bars I
What an unbelievable recipe!!! This was SOOOO easy to make, and it was incredibly good. I didn't have graham cracker crumbs (pre-done). I used my amazing Vitamix and it used about two packages of graham crackers ground up. Each package seemed to make one cup of crumbs. Will make this again and again. This is going in my cookbook, for sure!!! The only thing that confused me on this recipe is the serving of 12… This made WAY more than 12 bars. To get 12 bars, you would have to cut these into enormous bars… I made decent size squares and it came out to be about 42 squares.

Lime Cilantro Rice
Wow!!! How super easy is this!! I didn't really measure what I was putting in, so it was just the juice of one lime (that seemed to be really, really juicy). Omitted the lime zest. But, it was SOOO easy and VERY good. I didn't add the tablespoon of margarine in with the rice, and I felt the rice was lacking a flavor, and that was it. I will make sure to do that next time (got the wife's permission to do so; normally, she doesn't like that in anything). Will make this again in a heartbeat!!!
