I have loved to cook for many years now. I learned from my granny and grandmother and my mom. I have created a cookbook of original and passed down recipes. It's not published but who knows maybe one day?!
My favorite things to cook
homemade jelly, pies, cookies, brownies, chinese food, "sticky" rice, meatloaf, lasagna, enchilidas
My favorite family cooking traditions
baking pies and bread for Thanksgiving, cookies at Christmas time
My cooking triumphs
Creating a meatloaf recipe that everyone loves; the year I gave homemade plum jelly as christmas gifts and having family rave about it months later.
My cooking tragedies
Cutting my fingers the first few times using my new food processor. Of all things I tend to burn tea! One of the easiest things to make and I sometimes forget I have it on the stove haha.
