About me:
I'm a stay-at-home wife and mother of two handsome young men, ages 17 and 20. We have a black lab, Wilson, who's very important to our family. And we just lost our sweet Bassett Hound, Molly, after having her for almost 13 years. Molly, we all miss you so much! I grew up in a house of women who loved to cook. My maternal Grandmother lived with us... I'd say her specialty was baking, although everything she made tasted wonderful. My Mom is also an excellent cook, as are my three sisters. Grandma and Mom were always encouraging us to try new recipes, so I remember cooking at an early age. My paternal Grandfather, who was from Sweden, lived right next door and he had a huge garden every summer. I have many memories of fantastic meals made just from that garden!

Molasses Sugar Cookies

Reviewed on Dec. 23, 2009 by kris 
I dipped these in colored sugar for Christmas, and they were quickly gobbled up. I made the dough and then refrigerated it for 2 days before I got around to baking them. Baked for 9 minutes for slightly chewy cookies. Will definitely add to the cookie rotation.

Tiramisu Layer Cake

Reviewed on Dec. 21, 2009 by kris 
A real hit at our holiday dinner party today. A little time-consuming, but well worth the effort...pretty presentation. I "made" the marscarpone from the recipes posted by other reviewers, but otherwise followed the recipe. Used "heavy whipping cream" instead of heavy cream, as that was all I had available. Watched the beating time, though, and it turned out great. Will do again. for special occasions.

Pumpkin Chili Mexicana

Reviewed on Nov. 9, 2009 by kris 
It's still simmering and I already love it! My package of extra-lean ground turkey was just over a pound, but I used it all. I used light kidney beans and added a can of drained black beans, as well as a whole can of corn. Like another reviewer, I added some extra liquid, but I used low-sodium chicken stock. I also left out the salt. It smells wonderful and looks so pretty! Can't wait for supper!
