About this Cook
After my divorce I discovered I was a much better cook without my ex-husband looking over my shoulder and telling me what a horrible job I was doing. It's amazing what a little divorce will do for your self-esteem! :)
My favorite things to cook
I love to bake anything and I'm good at that, but I'm trying out this cooking thing. My son is the best guinea pig there is!
My favorite family cooking traditions
My grandmother is full Italian so I have a family recipe passed down from her. My other grandmother was a farmer's wife so I have stick-to-your-ribs recipes from her. And my mother started cooking healthy after my dad suffered a heart attack. I have the best of three worlds!
My cooking triumphs
Banana cream pie, meatloaf, london broil, almond chicken, chili
My cooking tragedies
A disgusting chicken casserole. Baking a pumpkin pie in a pie crust that still had its wax liner in it -- for a potluck at work!!

Balsamic Roasted Pork Loin
This was pretty spectacular. I had a 1lb pork tenderloin and baked for about an hour, but didn't modify the quantity of ingredients at all. Added: 2T honey, 2 minced garlic cloves.

Sweet Mustard Chicken Bake
4 stars because this doesn't need a half stick of butter - I only used 2T. Otherwise, a great quick meal for weeknight meals! Next time I will try the breadcrumb suggestion.
