About this Cook
My identity as a home cook is meant to compensate for my frigidity. Plus, I'm cheap. Just ask Kevin.
My favorite things to cook
Soups, stews, easy side dishes, lean protein dishes, slow cooker dishes, and all things baked: brownies, chocolate chip cookie, pineapple upside down cake, apple pies, breads and pastries
My cooking triumphs
An ooey-gooey chocolate cake topped with chocolate ganache that I still dream about.
My cooking tragedies
I didn't realize my fridge was broken and served spoiled filets topped with spoiled goat cheese to my dinner guests.

Individual Beef Wellingtons
Wow, what a delightful dish. I often serve filet for special meals, and this added that special touch to make it fun and different. The flavors are classic combinations, and the recipe works well exactly as written. The meat was so flavorful and tender - the cooking times were accurate. However, I have made some variations for fun on some occasions - I've added feta to the paste mixture, and I've swapped shallits for onion

Gulliver's Cream Corn
What a great side dish! I used 2% milk instead of cream, and I thought it tasted very rich. I can't wait to break this out at Christmas :)

Slow Cooker Beef Stroganoff I
For some reason, this recipe came out watery, and the cream cheese never seemed to melt properly in the mixture. It was more like cream cheese clumps in a watery stew. Maybe cream would have worked better. It just didn't work for me.
