About this Cook
I am a single professional who enjoys cooking in any spare time I can find. I read cookbooks for fun and devour every idea. I was raised in New England and learned the simplicity of New England traditional meals. My family was originally from Pennsylvania near the Amish country and so I have some Dutch influenced dishes in my repetoire. I have lived in New Orleans for several years now and have vastly expanded my tastes now that I am surrounded by a city that has made food part of the culture.
My favorite things to cook
Anything!!!
My favorite family cooking traditions
New England Thanksgiving Dinners, grandma's love of baking.

Lover's Loaf
This is my recipe so I give it five stars, but try using the second half of the meatloaf to make meatballs instead of the second load and stick them in the freezer for an easy weeknight meal of spaghetti and meatballs on another night!

Vietnamese Rice-Noodle Salad
I made this with minor changes due to being unable to locate rice noodles today. I used some ramen-like asian noodles instead. My package was 8oz and it made 4x what I needed so I don't know if you really need 12oz of rice noodles based on the quantity of sauce. I used hoisin sauce instead of fish sauce and added 1 tbsp of rice vinegar at the end just to help blend the flavors. I chilled it and served it cold with the "Asian Salmon Cakes with Creamy Miso and Sake Sauce" recipe from this site along with some steamed baby bok choy. It was a great dinner. Will make this again.

Blueberry Sherbet
This was about the easiest thing I ever made. Had some old blueberries to use up and this did the trick. It came out yummy. I served it with hot fudge and it was good. Would definitely try with other fruits. I may adjust the amount of sour cream down next time just a little.
