About this Cook
I grew up eating my fathers cooking (once professional chef), but didn't get interested in cooking until I was out of the house. I'm now lucky enough to be married to a man who loves to cook and we have so much fun in the kitchen. My forte is baking. His...everything else. ;)
My favorite things to cook
Bread, my famous meatloaf, pasta (recently into making fresh pasta - fantastic stuff!), sweet tea
My favorite family cooking traditions
Pirogi, meatloaf, trout almondine
My cooking triumphs
BREAD and PASTA! Who knew that homemade, fresh bread and pasta could taste so much better than from the grocery store!
My cooking tragedies
Bread. LOL

Red Skinned Potato Salad
Everything was perfectly balanced. I thought the onion would be a bit much, but it was perfect. This is a great "All American" potato salad.

Grandmother's Buttermilk Cornbread
This comes out perfect every time I make it. I made it tonight to go with seafood gumbo for the company we had over and everyone raved about it. The pan was empty in less than five minutes. Like others, I preheat my cast iron skillet while I'm prepping the batter - it makes for a truly wonderful crust. Thank you so much, Bethany, for posting this wonderful recipe!

Pumpkin Muffins II
These were really, really tasty. I had to grind my own cloves and nutmeg, and contribute much of the flavor to the fresh spices. I used a 15 oz can of pumpkin puree since it's July and no pumpkins to be found in this town right now. I ended up with about 15 good size muffins that rose beautifully.
