I'm a college student, my major is American Sign Language. I have two teenagers. I like to write, in fact I'm trying to write a book now. I just learned how to crochet and I love to do counted cross-stitch. I love to paint ceramics. I also study Medeval, Celtic, Scottish, and Irish history. I am in love with Scottish actor, Gerard Butler...I guess that's pretty much it.
My favorite things to cook
I love Chocolate. I like to try new things, I love to cook Chinese food, my favorite is kung pao chicken, Mexican food, and Italian food, I'm trying to master the Scots and Irish side of me but its difficult since I don't eat fish in any way shape or form...
My favorite family cooking traditions
I'm not sure what goes in here but every year we make fudge, divinity and toll house cookie bars at Christmas time. My kids always are helping me eat the cookie dough and the fudge before it is done!
My cooking triumphs
I learned to make kung pao chicken, and chili verde both from scratch. The kung pao I had to follow a recipe but the chili verde I did just my what I thought it should look like and it turned out really good, not that I'm bragging I was just proud of myself for a change.
My cooking tragedies
Too many to recall...
