About this Cook
I work full time, have one baby and am on a very tight budget. I love trying new dishes and ways to cook things.
My favorite things to cook
Breakfast food. The first thing I ever learned to make. Mexican food.
My favorite family cooking traditions
When I was little my grandma used to have my cousin and I over to decorate cookies. I was usually more modest with the decorations but my cousin loved to mound everything on.
My cooking triumphs
Created a wonderful way of cooking pork chops by accident.
My cooking tragedies
When I tried to sub egg substitute in a pound cake recipe. Not good.

Best Big, Fat, Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookie
I did this recipe as written with only two exceptions and really it was a time thing. I didn't melt the butter, I softened it and I refrigerated the dough before I baked them. There was really no real reason for doing those two steps other then I pulled the butter out of the fridge early and then made the dough and didn't have time to bake them then. I love these cookies. They were soft and delicious. I think the key is taking them out of the oven when they are just brown around the edges like the recipe says. I will defiantly be making these again.

Velvety Pumpkin Soup With Blue Cheese and Bacon
half and half is a mixture of half milk and half cream. It has 10-12% milkfat and cannot be whipped. In the UK I believe it is called half cream.
