About this Cook
I recently graduated college and started my career as a dental hygienist. Learning to switch from fast food and mac and cheese to whole meals, tougher than I thought!! I've discovered that I LOVE to cook and bake, as does my father who is great at it. It's been fun experimenting with all of the recipes I find, even better when I get a thumbs up from the people eating it!!
My favorite things to cook
I probably like to cook italian more than anything, never really attempted a true mexican dish, or any other ethnic dishes.
My favorite family cooking traditions
Thanksgiving is the feast of the year for my family. I make the desserts, an my dad makes the meal which is delicious.
My cooking triumphs
Probably Spiced Apple Cake. An all day task that I was sure would turn out horrible, but ended out great!! I decided after that one I could conquer any recipe, haha.
My cooking tragedies
Not many yet. The occasional burning of things happens. Nothing huge, yet!

Candied Chicken Breasts
Excellent. Changed a few things. As per other reviews used 1 cup pineappe juice, and 1/4 cup water. Did not put in oven, browned chicken and added remaining ingredients in skillet simmered about 20 minutes. Turned out wonderful and made things easier.
