I am an ecstatic mother of 2 beautiful girls - a 5-year old, McKenna, and 3-year old, Jordan. I've loved to cook from as far back as I can remember. I distincly recall when I was 4-years old - standing on a chair over a stove making a hamburger (what were my parents thinking?!!). I still try to prepare as many home-cooked meals as possible but being a mom to two small children is a challenge.
My favorite things to cook
I love cooking Chinese dishes. I picked up a lot of recipes from my Mother and have made up a few of my own.
My favorite family cooking traditions
Making homemade wontons and fried dim sum.
My cooking triumphs
Mastering greek "moussaka" and making pies from scratch.
My cooking tragedies
Trying to duplicate Cheesecake Factory's Jambalaya dish.
