Fall is my favorite season, and the smell of certain foods reminds me of past experiences or places I've been. Food is very nostalgic for me.
My favorite things to cook
My favorites to prepare would be salads of all kinds because of all the pretty colors and textures, but also flashy desserts!
My favorite family cooking traditions
Fall is all about pumpkin pie and squash. Apple pie and home made stew. When winter comes along, peppermint mocha's and hearty cassaroles are the fare at my house. Spring and summer are salad seasons, with cool desserts toppled with blueberries or mandarin oranges!It's very fulfilling to go to the garden and come in with everything you need for a fresh salad!
My cooking triumphs
Definitly my apple pie and sugar cookies. I also won my husband over with my chicken enchilada's when we were dating!
My cooking tragedies
The ham I baked when I was first married. It turned out beautifully, but when I went to serve it, I found out I had left the plastic wrap on it!!
