About this Cook
I love to cook & make people happy with my creations. I read cookbooks like novels from cover to cover. I love everything about being in the kitchen (except cleaning it) from planning menus to sitting down to a beautiful meal. Cooking is my art.
My favorite family cooking traditions
One of my favorite cooking traditions is the Thanksgiving turkey. We always search the store for the largest turkey they have. Kind of crazy considering there are only three people in our family.

Baked Potato Soup
Can't explain it but it's not 5 star. What's not to love? It's got all my favorite stuff, but wasn't what I expected. I love basil so I don't think that's it. Maybe it's cooking the onions & garlic in the bacon grease. It was good but not great.

Holiday Chicken Salad
I'm sorry but 3 stars is being generous. I thought it was blah & average & the paprika gave it that strange brownish color of canned tuna. If you make this at least leave out the paprika.

Cranberry Orange Cookies
YUM! These were soooo good! I used 1 1/3 cup craisins rehydrated overnight in 1/2 to 1 cup fresh squeezed oj. I also used 1 cup pecans instead of walnuts. And instead of the glaze I drizzled with melted white chocolate. I needed them to be firm on top so I could stack & ship them & the hardened white chocolate did the trick. They were beautiful!
