About this Cook
I'm a twenty year old aspiring actor, who moved from a small town in western Canada to the big apple, to go to theatre school. I have been very spoiled as far as food goes, growing up, and even on my tight student budget, I make the time and money to bake for my boyfriend and friend in the big city.
My favorite things to cook
cake, cookies, cupcakes, pies, loaves, etc.
My favorite family cooking traditions
My Italian dad makes amazing traditional food from his village in Italy, and my Aussie mom makes a really mean fruit cobbler and upside down cake.
My cooking triumphs
I have mastered the peanut butter cookie!
My cooking tragedies
No huge ones so far!

Chewy Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Cookies
I cut the salt in half, doubled baking soda, and added a half cup of flour as suggested and they were SO GOOD. Chewy!

Mom's Apple Pie I
This recipe is SO good and I'm not normally a fan of apple pie. I doubled the spices, though, as I usually do with pie recipes! Also, I didn't have whiskey so I substited with a really rich brandy. MMM.
