About this Cook
My favorite things to cook
Potato soup and other soups as I find them. I like to prepare whole birds in a variety of ways, and I enjoy baking cakes and breads when I have enough people around to eat them.
My cooking triumphs
Developing a potato soup that contains pork, dairy, and chicken. Vegetarian cooking is okay, but give me the meat!
My cooking tragedies
One time, I burned Rice Krispy Treats.

Lentil and Buckwheat Salad
This is good and I'll make it again, mostly for its vitamin and vegetarian benefits. It's not terribly flavorful, but it might get better in the fridge overnight. The only substitution I made was using dried marjoram instead of fresh.

Daddy's Fried Corn and Onions
This was surprisingly tasty considering its simplicity. I made this to go with pot roast and substituted some beef drippings for the butter. I also used frozen corn and a plain old yellow onion. Which I guess means I used this recipe more as a guideline, but it was still shockingly delicious.

Carrots in Dill Butter
Easy to make. I followed the directions exactly except I cooked until the carrots were done instead of for any set time.
