Been retired for 9 years. Work on car show which benifits a Hospice. Volunteer 4 days a week at hospital. Do Smart reading during school year.

My favorite things to cook
I love slow cooking. The crock pot is my friend. Any kind of seafood, chicken or turkey. Beef is not high on my list.
My favorite family cooking traditions
Thankgiving and Christmas is a great family gathering. We do a semi-potluck. Always more food than we can eat.
My cooking triumphs
Fruitcake is not high everyones list at christmas. I make a great fruitcake that I use applesauce instead of oil. Everyone loves it. Also my zucchini bread with lemon zest is wanted by all.
My cooking tragedies
In one of my first meatloafs I forgot to add eggs. When it came out it was like meat hash.
