About this Cook
I love to cook. I try to cook as healthy as possible. I have 4 kids and a husband who is diabetic so I try to stay away from baking. Too tempting to make sweets.
My favorite things to cook
Quick and easy meals for my kids. My daughters favorite meal is spaghetti cooked in chicken broth, then I add broccoli florets and let them cook with the spaghetti. She loves this with a little salt, pepper, butter and parm. cheese.
My favorite family cooking traditions
My family will only eat the stuffing I make from scratch so Thanksgiving and Christmas are the only times they eat it. My kids and I love to make cookies as gifts so we start a few weeks before Christmas and we make A LOT of cookies.
My cooking triumphs
The first year we were married I cooked for both sides of the family for Thanksgiving. It came off without a hitch. I was very impressed with myself.
My cooking tragedies
When I first started dating my husband, more than 20 years ago, his favorite dessert was Banana Cream Pie. I decided to make him one. Unfortunately, I didn't let it cook long enough so when I tried to cut it, it was more like soup than pie. He just looked at me, smiled and asked for a straw! Good thing I married him. He's a keeper.
