My cooking tragedies
1993: Pepper steak gone awry. Started off well using typical ingredients, then wanted to tweak the dish. End up with an odd stir fried concoction of 12 ingredients that was way too peppery, way to herby and spicy, with an odd marinade that no longer resembled pepper steak nor any dish that mankind has ever known.

Baked Shrimp with Feta and Tomato
Lots of flavor! Unless your taste buds are dull you will only need a regular serving to get your fill of this dish. This is a special treat and not something I'd make often since their is so much flavor. But it is so good that I may not be able to pass it up for the next special dinner. It's a wonderful departure from the typical shrimp and noodles or scampi dishes out there. Next time I may try it bruschetta-style.

Coconut Macaroons III
Yummy! Dense and chewy on the inside, and toasted just enough on the outside. I also used 1tsp vanilla and 1tsp of almond extract. It was slightly too sweet so maybe I will cut back on the scm next time. I used sweetened coconut, which was fine, but the sweetness was from the scm.

Great Grandad's Sugar Cookies
Very similar to my mom's recipe, but with nutmeg that gives these the needed holiday flavor. Don't know what the leavening did for the recipe. They were a hit with the coworkers and my kid.
