About this Cook
My favorite things to cook
I love to bake cakes, cookies, and breads. I love reading cookbooks. I am always trying new recipes.
My favorite family cooking traditions
Indiana sugar cream pie!! We love chicken homemade noodles over mashed potatoes. My in-laws had a smorgasboard restaurant that was always full of people. They had the very best salads there. My mother in-law is the greatest cook I know. She has taught me well!
My cooking triumphs
Indiana Sugar Cream pie- after several attempts finally can make it just right. I finally can make the entire Thanksgiving dinner by myself!
My cooking tragedies
I tried making sweet potatoe pie and it was very lumpy. I also made one of those dump cakes and the cake portion was dry, it never absorbed any of the butter. Both of these were cooked on the same Thanksgiving dinner. Everything I made that year for Thanksgiving has something wrong with it!

Gingerbread Men
They are very good cookie. They make very good cut out cookies. I only use this gingerbread cookie recipe.

Buffalo Chicken Dip
Made this last night for the football game. My family loved it. I thought the corn chips was too overpowering for the dip. I did use the chicken crackers. I think just plain tortilla chips would be fine. Both of my sons put the dip on a sandwich bun with corn chips on top!! My sister said it was the best recipe I have made!

No-Bake Peanut Butter Cookies III
Mine never got firm. They stayed gooey. I guess they need to state to not use Margarine. I am not sure that was the trouble. Someone said not to stir it while boiling it. WIll try again with real butter.
