My favorite things to cook
Any kind of dessert or Italian food.
My favorite family cooking traditions
Homemade spagetti with meatballs. Holiday turkey with lots of bread stuffing!
My cooking triumphs
When I finally mastered homemade butter icing for my Mom's birthday cake - it only took about 17 years - I no longer use the actual recipe - just wing it!
My cooking tragedies
Made an apple pie for a friend's birthday - put it in the oven - oven was on the fritz - smelled something burning about 5 minutes later - top crust was TOTALLY black. Not enough time or ingredients to do another!
