About this Cook
I am a mother to two beautiful girls, Paxton (8) and Addison (4). I have been married 9 years to my loving husband, Tristan. My husband was an active Marine, until 2001. I was a working mother until we had our youngest in 2003. i stayed home until 2006. I am now working full-time so my husband can finish school. I never really had to work within a budget before, and now i do. i also have to think of meals that are easy and not so time consuming. I actually have been doing most of my cooking on the weekends, and add a side here and there through out the week. my girls love to help me, and i encourage them to do so.
My favorite things to cook
I love to bake cakes, and cookies. I also love to make interesting things to wow my friends and family. I love crock-pot recipes and soups.
My favorite family cooking traditions
baking cookies at christmas time, and gettting thanksgiving together. I love the way everyone, know what to do, and it is so nice for the everyone to chat over good food.
My cooking triumphs
I was given the task of making a dish for Christmas dinner, and didn't have the recipe and I worked through it and I did it. whew! Sharing my love for food with my girls.
My cooking tragedies
chocolate graham cracker crusted pork chops. (doesn't work like plain graham cracker crumbs)LOL

German Red Cabbage
This is so close to my husbands Omie's recipe. the only thing I do differently is instead of using the cheesecloth I take the onion whole, and stick the cloves in the onion and allspice and peppercorns. Than at the end i remove the whole onion and bay leaf. Oh and I don't add the apples every time.

Country Squash Casserole
this is fantastic. It was great the day I made it, and even better the next day. :) I do have to say I thought a whole red bell pepper was too much. I only added a 1/4 of one and it was perfect.

Chicken Enchiladas II
love it love it. The only thing I have to change is to not had so many chillies, my poor girls thought it was too spicy. My husband and I on the other hand loved it! Thanks so muc for taking a boring work night dinner and turning it into something kinda special. :)
