About this Cook
I am a person who loves the artistry and sensuality of cooking. I happen to be married to a wonderful man who thinks I am the best cook around. That really helps my confidence and makes me want to branch out and experiment even more!
My favorite things to cook
My pies are my signature, but I really love cooking just about anything. I especially like dishes that are colorful, healthy, and delicious, of course.
My favorite family cooking traditions
When the kids were small I would bring out my special recipe book at Halloween and we would cook things with horrible names like Chucky's Upchuck and Brains on a Half Shell. Ha! They loved it!

Apple Pie by Grandma Ople
This pie was REALLY good, but I could only give it 4 stars because there's no cinnamon in the recipe! How can you make apple pie without cinnamon? Sorry, but I gotta have it. Other than that this pie was mmm-good and easy.

Italian Vegetarian Patties
I love, love, love these patties! The only changes I made were, 1) adding about 1/2 cup of chopped onions to the hot oil and rice, and 2) to use a light-flavored olive oil rather than vegetable oil, in keeping with my efforts to make healthier food choices. I didn't have to alter the amount of water, or change the recipe in any other way. Not sure why onions would not be included in the recipe, though. To me, onions are the backbone of flavorful, savory cooking. I love how these patties were not dry or cardboard-like, as so many vegetarian "meat" recipes can be. Thank you for this recipe, SHECOOKS2. It is a keeper! Even my meat-and-potatoes husband liked them.

Cookie Balls
I made these for my husband's birthday party, and everyone passed on the cake so that they could eat these yummies instead! Personally, I thought that they were too sweet. I am giving this recipe a 5 simply because I seem to have been outnumbered by those that thought they were simply heaven on earth. Next time I make them I will use semisweet morsels instead of the white chocolate chips, to cut the sweetness. I will also try other flavors of sandwich cookie - lemon, vanilla, etc. I rate these highly because they are SO SIMPLE and the results are so impressive.
