About this Cook
I've lived a number of places and am fortunate to have experienced a number of different cuisines.
My favorite things to cook
Baking bread, baking brownies, baking cake, baking....
My favorite family cooking traditions
Our family get-togethers, like many families, are surrounded by food. We're the average Midwest family-a variety of typical farm food, a little Asian, a little Tex-mex, a little of this, a little of that. We dabble in variety, but come back to our roots for favorites.
My cooking triumphs
Just making it through the day-to-day for over 30 years is a triumph for me. I enjoy cooking but the grind of everyday cooking wears me down at times.
My cooking tragedies
No real tragedies; perhaps a few embarrassing moments that will remain a mystery to this audience.

Green Bean and Potato Salad
Good. Not the best. Kids refused to eat it because the balsamic vinegar turned the potatoes brown.

Black Beans, Corn, and Yellow Rice
This was good as written, but we like it best with whole grain rice and Rotel tomatoes with cilantro and lime.

Excellent Oatmeal Cookies
Made the recipe as written. Bland, dry. This does not do justice to what an oatmeal cookie can be.
