I live in Fort Worth and have been cooking as long as I can remember, just not so much for pleasure as I do now. I recently married a wonderful man with 3 teenage boys....that being said I now have a very appreciative audience to cook for. They have learned to be a little wary when I announce that I am trying a new recipe though!
My favorite things to cook
I love anything savory but have recently started experimenting with baking since my new family definatley has "sweet teeth"!
My favorite family cooking traditions
My sister and I always make Sausage Cheese Biscuits on Christmas Morning. She hates to get her hands messy in the mixture so this year I introduced her to "food gloves" so we didn't have to fight over whose turn it was!
My cooking triumphs
I made my first cheese cake from scratch this year and a triple layer cake for my son's 18th birthday!
My cooking tragedies
The first cake I ever tried to make was when I was 18 and it was for my boyfriends birthday. It was a German Choclate cake and turned out lopsided and gooey!!
