My favorite things to cook
Italian food - manicotti, ravioli, lasagna

Homemade egg noodles with turkey gravy served over mashed potatoes - this was the one thing my mom let all the kids help make on Thanksgiving.

My first Thanksgiving dinner: making a 27lb. turkey and all the fixings (and finishing it on time) for my family and friends.
My cooking tragedies
Peanut Brittle - I haven't found a single recipe that I can make well!

Good Old Fashioned Pancakes
Great recipe! I made the first few pancakes exactly as the recipe states, but they were a bit too thick for me. I added some more milk to the batter and they were much better for my personal taste.

Buttermilk Pound Cake II
Absolutely perfect! We had originally tried making a Martha Stewart recipe which sadly disappointed us. This recipe was exactly what we were looking for - a nice dense pound cake which we glazed with a dessert wine reduction (we used Beringer's 2005 Nightingale Semillon/Sauvignon Blanc). We make it in a bundt pan and it took all 90 minutes. I will make this one again.

Fra Diavolo Sauce With Pasta
This was delicious! I used both shrimp & scallops, as well as one can of fire-roasted tomatoes. I also added Italian seasonings, cayenne pepper, and some dry red wine. Per another review, I tossed the pasta and sauce and let simmer for a couple minutes before serving. The colors in this dish made it look like it had come from a fancy Italian restaurant - not my busy household kitchen. This recipe does make a lot of food. For a date night with my husband, next time I will cut in half.
