I have 3 adult sons, all living away but not far from home. Cooking has always been fun, but fited around horses, shift work, and weaving as an artist doing the round of art shows and sales.
My favorite things to cook
I love chicken and barbequing, Barbeques keep the house cool, and allows more time to kayack and take nature photos.
My favorite family cooking traditions
Turkey curry for New Years. I have been working at chaning old festive food traditions for healthier, and less expensive ones than those handed down.
My cooking triumphs
Cheesecakes, apple cakes, roasts, Yorkshire pudding as a special treat, and barbequing. I tend to experiment for company and fortunately have few dissapointments.
My cooking tragedies
Chili that was too hot to reserect, and stew that I burnt because I forgot it was cooking as I was trying to finishe a weaving commission.
