About this Cook
interested in lots of things, tend to cook more in the winter months. Summer I tend my gardens and walk a lot.
My favorite things to cook
I love to make bread, makes the whole house smell wonderful, enjoy a slice just out of the oven.
My favorite family cooking traditions
I don't follow my family traditions ( greasy and unhealthy ) I like to stay somewhat healthy, little grease and fat as possible, but retaining great taste.
My cooking triumphs
My cheesecakes have always been a favorite. I like to make a different flavor each time.
My cooking tragedies
always had trouble with pie crust. HATE making pie crust

Quick and Easy Pizza Crust
This a really good crust recipe and I've tried quite a few. I added a few shakes of Italian seasoning, sea salt, and some of that Kraft Parmesan cheese, you know the stuff that comes in the shakers. I didn't use any corn meal or anything but I did roll out the dough on parchment paper then slid the whole thing onto my pizza stone. I plan to try all sorts of seasoning combos in the future and see what I can do.

Cran-Raspberry Pie
Made this for Christmas and everyone agreed this was a wonderful pie. I made according to the recipe but added a bit more tapioca as the mixture seemed very moist. The pie turned out perfect.

Three Cheese Garlic Scalloped Potatoes
This was very popular for Christmas dinner. I did cook it about 20 minutes longer to get the potato cooked more. Tastes great as leftovers as well
