About this Cook
My favorite things to cook
Chili, pasta dishes, all casseroles, biscuits, anything in crock pot
My favorite family cooking traditions
My mother was a fabulous cook! Pot roast, round steak w/gravy, fried chicken w/mashed potatoes & sweet corn...you name it, she cooked it! On Saturdays she would make us tacos but she would fry the tortillas in hot oil and they came out all bubbly and crispy.
My cooking triumphs
The first meal I cooked for my boyfriend...creamed chicken over biscuits. He had 2nd and 3rd helpings. Also my chicken noodle casserole.
My cooking tragedies
Pot roast! I got the roast at a cheap discount store (which I won't name!)...the quality of the beef was not good and thus, it made for a very average pot roast. Next time I will buy my roast at a grocery store with a meat specialty.

Glazed Meatloaf II
I detest meatloaf but this is the best I have ever tasted...I found myself loving it! With a nice lettuce salad and a veggie casserole or potatoes this is absolutely perfect. Thanks!

Banana Nut Bread I
Best banana bread I have ever had. I was so impressed with myself after I made this. Everything was perfect. And I wrapped the loaves in foil to keep them moist, and it worked. Three days after I baked them they are still delicious and moist. Thank you!!!!

Traditional Mashed Potatoes
Mine came out watery, but only because I overcooked them. Next time I will do better. Thank you!
