Oklahoma City, Oklahoma

This sprawling city is the capital of Oklahoma. Oil derricks on the lawn of the State Capitol testify to Oklahoma’s past as a big-time oil state. Today, the city is a crossroads of commerce where Interstates 35 and 40 intersect. “America’s Main Street,” Route 66, also angles through town. For weary travelers converging on the town, “Oklahoma City looks oh-so pretty.” Locals and passers-by alike are drawn to the Bricktown section of OKC, where they can fuel up at any number of restaurants, and afterwards stretch their legs with a stroll along the river walk. A large Vietnamese population makes Oklahoma City a hot place for Banh Mi sandwiches or a steaming bowl of pho. Oklahoma’s cowboy past is celebrated at the National Cowboy and Western Heritage Museum and at Stockyards City, founded in 1910, and billed as “the best of the West and a whole lot more” -- grab a big juicy steak at Cattlemen’s Restaurant and a cool pair of kickers at Langston’s!

About me:
 I grew up with parents who loved to cook. They watched Julia Child on PBS and I never realized the impact it would have on me. My older sisters and my younger ones all have a deep love for the art of cooking which binds us together and ties us with our childhood. My sisters children have all carried on the tradition of homecooked food. Cooking is a way of expressing my love for those who eat and for the beautiful bounty of the earth.

Best Big, Fat, Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookie

Reviewed on May 6, 2008 by fyrcrakr
These cookies had a great texture. They were crisp on the outside and chewy on the inside. However, I did find them a little greasy. Next time I may replace half of the butter with shortening. Also, I refrigerated the cookies (on the cookie sheet) right before they went in the oven. I noticed this made their shape come out better. The first batch was a little flat. Good cookie overall and I would make them again.

Real Texas Chili

Reviewed on May 1, 2008 by GRANNYLOOHOO
I have to agree with SHOOPDJ that the flavor comes close to Ike's Chili from Tulsa. I made it with ground beef, used lower sodium beef broth & the only thing I added was a tablespoon of worcestershire sauce. We used it on our hot dogs and it made a great chili sauce! I will definitely try it with roast beef.

Broccoli With Lemon Almond Butter

Reviewed on Apr. 30, 2008 by P.Smith
I really liked this dish, and while others have said it was too lemony, I didn't think so at all. Followed the recipe to a tee, other than adding 1/2 tsp. of garlic salt and 1/4 tsp. of lemon pepper. This sauce goes good with green beans too, but I think I like it better with the broccoli. 5 stars and highly recommended!
