Married to my high school love, and we have six daughters that range in age from 13 to 4.
My favorite things to cook
Snacks, "comfort" foods, salads, chicken dishes, grilling pretty much anything!
My favorite family cooking traditions
Baking cookies together; cooking on the grill in the summer; "Junk Food Dinners" that usually consist of some homemade hot dip, homemade chicken fingers, pizza and mozzarella sticks. I am always on here browsing recipes for ideas on what to cook!
My cooking triumphs
Pasta salad, my alfredo sauce, Beer Cheese soup, French Onion soup, breakfast casserole, lots of different appetizers. After years of working at a deli that also served chicken wings and pizza, I can whip up a mean pie or sandwich.
My cooking tragedies
Decorating things like cake and cookies...about the only cookie that came out even resembling anything were ghost and pumpkin ones at Halloween. We like baking together, but I leave the decorating to the kids!
