About this Cook
My favorite things to cook
I like to cook just about anything, baking too. I like to try new recipes and I love to collect cookbooks.
My favorite family cooking traditions
Cooking with my grandma when I was a little girl. My grandma made the best chicken, she taught me how to bake and can pickles, make jelly and jam. Now I try to duplicate her recipes, but somehow they never turn out as good.
My cooking triumphs
I've had quite a few, but my favorite is my "Best in the World Pickles". It's my great-grandma's recipe. They are so good now every year a group of my friends come out and we all can them together.
My cooking tragedies
I made enchiladas once and didn't have any chili powder and subd. cayenne pepper. They about made your eyes water trying to eat them. Now I can't make them without my husband commenting on the chili powder.

Cheeseburger Soup I
Fantastic soup! My husband ate it for 3 days and he hates leftovers. I used Velveeta this time but think I will mix in a little cheddar next time to cut the richness of it.

Orange Cream Cake
This is my husband's favorite cake I made it once for my grandpa out of the ToH book and once Rob tried it I now have to make it every year for his birthday. If you like the dreamsicle bar you will Love this cake!

Rhubarb Sour Cream Pie
This pie was really, really good and refreshing. Plain rhubarb can sometimes be to much but the sour cream really rounds out the flavor. My dad devoured it and he hates sour cream. Of course I didn't tell him it was in there ;)
