About this Cook
My cooking triumphs
My pot roast sandwiches make you wanna slap yo momma. I'm salivating just thinking about them.
My cooking tragedies
It's tragic that I haven't mastered gumbo. GUMBO for chrissakes. (It's just so easy to get gumbo at someone's house, or work, or every restaurant in town, but I want to make one.)

Easy Cheese Ball II
I realized too late that I mixed the wrong proportions of ingredients, and it came out a little dry and crumbly, but it was still super good! I doubled the recipe and used only 2 blocks of cream cheese, 3 cups of sharp cheddar, 2 cups of pepper jack, 1 package of Hidden Valley Fiesta Dip Ranch Mix, and added some thinly sliced green onion. It was rolled in chopped pecans, of course. The cheese ball was huge! Had to make two, otherwise it would've been a basketball. It smelled like a cool ranch Dorito, but it tasted less processed.

Sweet Potato Bread I
I had some huge, not terribly tasty sweet potatoes just waiting to be used, so I tried this recipe. Man oh man, is it good! I didn't use nutmeg, because I didn't have any, and I added raisins. Also I did the half brown sugar, half white sugar that people suggested. So moist! So tasty! I'm going to have to make more this weekend.

Mom's Baking Powder Biscuits
The best from scratch biscuit I've made so far, but not 5 star gold. I'm going to try improving my methods, like placing the biscuits closer together while baking, and barely handling the dough. No hockey pucks yet!
