I have a week off of work, so I decided to start my spring cleaning today. I figured I'd get the worst room out of the way first, which would be the kitchen. I organized all my cupboards and drawers, which was quite the task. My worst cupboard is the spice cupboard. It is always a disaster.… MORE

About this Cook
I live in southern Minnesota and work as a registered nurse at our local hospital. I'm married and have a dog. I love cooking, baking, shopping, going fishing with my husband, playing games, watching TV, reading, and going to our family's cabin up north on the lake.
My favorite things to cook
Pasta, breads, appetizers/dips, breakfast, crockpot meals, mexican food, desserts
My favorite family cooking traditions
My mom never really cooked much when I was growing up. If she did it was something out of a box or some sort of frozen dinner. My grandma on the other hand always made everything from scratch, and I loved eating at her house. I guess that's why I try to make homemade food as much as possible. It just tastes so much better.

Honey-Dijon Ham
This was good, but nothing special. I had a 6 lb ham so I increased the oven temp to 350 and baked for 60 minutes before applying the glaze, then baked another 15 minutes or so. I didn't think the glaze made a very good dipping sauce. So, if I were to make this again, I would cut the glaze ingredients in half and just use to baste the ham.

Ham N Cheese Potato Bake
It tasted a little too much like cream soup to me or maybe it was the cheddar soup I didn't care for. I think I would have preferred something a little more buttery in flavor. I did not have hash browns on hand so I shredded 6 med/large russet potatoes. Would also be good with thinkly sliced potatoes. I increased the ham to 2.5 cups and it was fine, but a little more wouldn't hurt either.

Velvety Pumpkin Soup With Blue Cheese and Bacon
Wow! A creamy pumpkin soup with a big spicy kick! I did not top with the blue cheese and bacon, because I did not have any on hand, but it was still delicious on its own with a handful of croutons. I first melted the butter and sauteed the shallot for a couple minutes over medium heat. Then added remaining ingredients, brought to a bubble, then reduced heat to low and simmered for 10 minutes.
