About this Cook
My favorite things to cook
Almost anything that involves baking - I love baking! I also love finding new, interesting meals for my family that aren't too complicated to make on a weeknight.
My favorite family cooking traditions
Cookies during the holidays, my grandmother's rolls, and various other recipes from both of my grandmothers.

Banana Orange Bars
Really rather quite good - I did make some changes based on a few of the other reviews (I only used one cup of sugar, 1/2 cup vegetable oil, and 2 1/2 cups of mashed bananas), but they still turned out quite good. I also made a cream cheese icing for these because I was in the mood for one, and I didn't have any orange juice on hand anyway. Really, really good, sort of like a banana version of a carrot cake. I suspect it would be very good with the orange icing as well, which I'll have to try next time. Definitely a great use for bananas if you're wanting to make something other than banana bread!

Wilma's Fish Casserole
This was quite good. I did use flounder instead of haddock (as it's what we had), and my pinches were about 1/2 tsp each. I also didn't have any marjoram, so I used 1/4 tsp of white pepper instead. (No, not really an exact substitution, but it worked!) And I reduced the butter to 1/4 cup rather than the 1/2 it calls for. Everything else I kept the same, and it turned out quite well. It was enjoyed by the whole family, and I'd make it again!

Cream Cheese Frosting II
Really good - this frosting was perfect on the carrot cake I made it for. It's a sweeter cream cheese frosting, but then, that's what I was wanting. It's a great texture, spreads well, and colors nicely too. And it just tastes really really good!
