I am a lifetime cook. I attended Le Cordon Bleu in Tokyo for 2 years and I have been cooking since I was 10 and I will be 49 in December 07 I cook anything, but I love to make appetizers. I love sampling other people's cooking and I write restaurant reviews. My sisters and I divide the holidays, mine is New Year's Day. It used to be Christmas Eve but was just too busy with work and I make a huge football food and dessert buffet on Jan 1st for the family! My BBQ sauce and liqueur cakes sell very well and I have catered many events where people loved the food. I can't seem to find a recipe for the molasses taffy that was in the older editions of the red plaid Better Homes and Gardens cookbook. If anyone has a pre-1980 edition, I'd sure love to have that recipe!
