I live in Henderson, Nevada with my husband. I am retired from LVMPD as a 911 Specialist and I enjoy cooking very much. So glad I have the time to devote to it.
My favorite things to cook
Mexican, American, cookies, cakes.
My favorite family cooking traditions
With fall comes more hearty meals for us. Oct,Nov & Dec are packed with meals related to Halloween, Thanksgiving & Christmas. The rest of the year our meals are a lighter fare as our weather is usually very hot.All holidays include family & friends & good food.
My cooking triumphs
A beautiful Ladyfinger Cheesecake. Wow, it looked great and was so easy to make. The recipe is on this site and was submitted by: sydny
My cooking tragedies
Let's see......the time I took a hot pot off the stove and forgot to turn the burner off. I laid the hot pot onto a pot holder on the counter. The pot holder stuck to the hot pot when I lifted the pot from the counter. I laid the pot back on the burner and the pot holder caught fire. I had to put the fire out with my fire extingsher. What a mess!! There's more but not enough room to list it all :-)
