I enjoy the outdoors and living by the beach. Cooking new recipes is my guilty pleasure :-)!
My favorite things to cook
Crawfish etoufee or fettucini, mexican dishes, seafood, cajun stuffed pork roast w/ rice & gravy, asian inspired
My favorite family cooking traditions
pumpkin bread - got the recipe right here at Allrecipes. Pecan Cheesecake - again, found recipe here.
My cooking triumphs
Sesame Jalapeno chicken with Lo Mein noodles - cooked for company and weeks later they are still talking about it. Had same success with crawfish fettucini. I like to find difficult recipes and make them my own!
My cooking tragedies
Tried to replicate a dish that used Remoulade sauce - I could only find remoulade mayonnaise and it just wasn't the same - assume there must be a vast difference in taste. Husband was nice enough to try it - but I had to pass!
