Newly married and enjoying cooking for two! Love living in Maine- lots of great places to explore. Vegetarian for past 7 years, love spicy food!
My favorite things to cook
vegetarian fare of all sorts- ethnic: Indian, Mexican, Mediterranean
also Lasagne, imitation meatloaf, pasta dishes, tempeh, Quorn "Chicken" patties
My favorite family cooking traditions
Mom's spaghetti sauce and french bread
My cooking triumphs
Finally learning how to get a whole meal onto the table at about the same time (entree and side dishes). It took me forever to get that timing right!
My cooking tragedies
Pretty much weekly burning of the bottom of baked goods- our oven is old and very finicky. Haven't quite figured out how to prevent the consistent buring of the bottoms of all cookies/cakes/breads I put in there. We just slice of the burned parts and eat the rest!
