It's me!
About this Cook
I am a middle school teacher. I have 2 Golden Retrievers and live in a house in Huntington Beach. My parents live next door to me on one side and my aunt and uncle live on the other side, so I am trying to cook more for the family.
My favorite things to cook
I love holiday cookting. Anything for a Christmas or Thanksgiving Day dinner is the best.
My favorite family cooking traditions
We make these things called egg boats. They are the best things ever and I am going to try and submit them.
My cooking triumphs
For the past two Christmas dinners I made homemade cranberry sauce, cream corn, wassail and hot chocolate. Now they are staples.
My cooking tragedies
I have not done enough cooking yet to have had a tragedy. Hopefully that stays the same.

Spaghetti Carbonara II
This was good, but here are some tips: I took the advice of some others and combined egg and parm together before putting it in pasta. The recipe NEEDED more bacon. Also, I had to make an additional mixture of sauce because it was too dry, so I would double that to start with. I also added chicken.

Barbeque Beef Casserole
This was good. I made the kid friendly version by eliminating the pepper altogether and using some tomato puree instead of the chunks. I find that kids will eat just about anything if it does not have visible chunks. Onions minced! Tomato puree! Very tasty. Might add some kidney beans next time.

Cornbread and Sausage Stuffing
Made this for Christmas. As a tip, I used chicken broth instead of vegetable broth and everyone loved it. I also made it in a 9" x 13" cake pan, because that is what I had at the time. It worked fine. Used sage sausage as others suggested and then eliminated the sage. Worked perfectly. Stuffing can dry out easily though if left to keep warm. When warming, drizzle a little extra broth over top and cover. This is the third stuffing I have made, looking for the perfect one and I must say that the other two that I made were much more complicated and this one is the best. My search is over.
