About this Cook
I am a school teacher in California with two grown children. I used to stick to the quick and easy dishes when I was raising a family, but now I have more time and my taste buds have grown more complex.
My favorite things to cook
I like to experiment with the recipes on this site. Baking is probably my area of expertise. I make a mean Raspberry white chocolate cheesecake and a pretty good creme brulee.
My favorite family cooking traditions
I come a family of bakers and watch out when we get together for the holidays. I have just started a new tradition in my family and that is a X-mas cookie exchange.
My cooking triumphs
cheesecake, creme brulee, brownies, biscotti, spahgetti, manicotti, tacos, enchiladas.
My cooking tragedies
rosemary chicken, my family said it tasted like weeds, not herbs.

Maple Pumpkin Cheesecake
I make this every year for Halloween and then I lost my recipe, which I found in a little commercial recipe book, . I am glad to have found it on here. It usually makes a couple of cheesecakes.

Best Ever Pie Crust
I have never, ever been able to make pie crust from scratch. With your recipe I was successful. I used it for the min chess pies on this site and didn't have time to refrigerate, so I fput the two halves in freezer for 30 minutes and voila!! perfect pie crust. thank you!!
