About this Cook
Proud Marine Wife and mom of one 4 year old daughter. I am used to cooking a lot because my husband tends to eat it all!
My favorite things to cook
I love to bake... LOVE IT. Making quick and easy dinners is one of my specialties-- though I can't wait to be a stay at home mom again so that I can go back to really cooking real meals.
My favorite family cooking traditions
Family dip!
My cooking triumphs
Being patient enough and becoming more creative to REALLY tinker with recipes.
My cooking tragedies
When I was younger I was famous for my "mesquite grilled pudding" as my father dubbed it.

Classic Peanut Butter Cookies
WOW!!!! I lowered the oven temp to 350, used bread flour instead of all purpose, added 1.5 t of vanilla... But really, those were the only changes. I baked them for about 15 minutes (lower oven temp), and made HUGE HUGE cookies. Literally, I made 24 cookies-- about 3 inches across. They are amazing!!

Creamed Beef with Rice
I was desperate for an easy recipe with the ingredients I had on hand.... The milk curdled in the pan.. I don't know what I did wrong.

Naan
WOW!!!! I followed the amounts in the recipe, but used my bread maker for the dough-- I had to add some extra water, but I believe it is because we live in the desert and there is NO moisture in the air. I grilled, brushed with butter-- AMAZING. Great chewy texture, wonderfully tasty. I am so impressed.
