My favorite things to cook
I like to bake and decorate cookies and cupcakes, but don't like having them around the house because they won't really get eaten. I need someone to donate baked goods to! I also like making soup and am happy when I find a good tofu recipe.
My favorite family cooking traditions
I like making kolaches with my grandma. My aunt and I used to make cookies together when I'd stay at her house. Now my daughter likes to help me out with everything I cook, but especially pancakes and cookies.
My cooking triumphs
I just made the most awesome cake in the world for my daughter's birthday. I also make a mean loaf of bread.
My cooking tragedies
Many cakes have been abandoned before decorating when one half comes out of the pan and the other half decides to stay put. The first time I tried to cook tofu was a total wreck. I had no idea what to do, had never eaten it before, and ended up with a flavorless, mushy mess. Luckily I can cook tofu like a champ now. A champ, I say!

Whole Wheat Pumpkin-Applesauce Muffins
I left out the pecans and added currants and cranberries instead of raisins. Delicious!

Fresh Tomato Salsa
This is now my go-to salsa recipe; we are done with the jarred stuff. I threw it all into the food processor and it was done in 30 seconds. I made two changes, based on the reviews I read: I added a clove of garlic and reduced the number of peppers to two (although I might do three next time.)

Mini Poppy Seed Loaves
These are so good! They are not too sweet, but still have a lot of flavor. I forgot to add the vanilla and almond extract to the first two batches I put in the oven and they still turned out great. I just added it to the last bit of batter in the bowl, and I'm sure those will turn out great as well.
