About this Cook
I have 2 grown children and 4 grandchildren. My son and his family live nearby and my daughter and her family live 3 hours away.
My favorite things to cook
I love cooking things I can be creative with. I love presentation and the WOW factor!
My favorite family cooking traditions
Every Easter I hold the annual Easter Egg Hunt. Each year it grows more as the family expands.
My cooking triumphs
My sister and I made my mother's wedding cake; when, as a widow she married one of my dad's friends.
My cooking tragedies
While delivering a cake to my husband's workplace, my little one sat on it! I took the cake home, called hubby and the guys said "bring it anyway!" Fortunately, it had plastic wrap. Also, I set off the fire alarm at Disney World's Fort Wilderness while cooking bacon. The fire car came with it's lights flashing. It was soooo embarrassing.

Frosted Cranberries
What a burst of flavor! So simple to make and a beautiful presentation. Using lovestohost suggestion, I replaced the egg white with light karo and water, mixing it in a bowl and coating the berries all at once by tossing with a spoon. Then I dropped them one by one into a zip lock bag with sugar, gently shaking the bag as I dropped. I poured them onto a cookie sheet to dry. It only took minutes to prepare. Thank you for sharing such a beautiful treat!

Fun Cookie Suckers
AWESOME! These cookies not only tasted great, they were fun to make. I rolled three logs, placed them side by side, and twisted them; then, I rolled one log with the twisted colors. Thank you Christine M for that suggestion. I only got seven cookies from the recipe so they were bigger than called for. Therefore, I baked them 10-12 minutes. Because some reviewers stated they needed more sugar, I thEn pressed the cookie into sugar crystals and attached the stick. I used Wilton's "cookie sticks" because lollipop sticks would be too thin. Thank you Terri for sharing such an AWESOME FUN RECIPE!

Thick Cut-Outs
I cut the recipe to 25 servings as 75 is too much for 2 people. The recipe never told you to add the vanilla extract but fortunately I caught that. The dough was too sticky to roll after hours of refrigeration. I did as others suggested and added flour. The cookies turned out beautiful but had no flavor.
