About this Cook
I am a traveleing PTA (therapy) and so my meals need to be easy and utilize basic cookware as I am at the mercy of the furnished places my company puts me in. I don't like to eat out, so therefore I cook alot. I am married and have 2 dogs (our kids are grown) and they travel with me.
My favorite things to cook
SOUPS, anything that goes into a crockpot! Light and tasty, filling without lots of calories.
My favorite family cooking traditions
eggnog with the kids, and candy making at Christmas

Corn Chowder
I misplaced my mothers recipe for what we called Cream of Potato soup. Our version is made with one can of half n half, and you boil the potatoes (6 of them, or 2 1/2 cups) and when soften, you then MASHED them in the water and then added the ingredients. Instead of half a stick of butter it was 3 tablespoons, salt and pepper to taste. Serve with oyster crackers and yum!

Quick Crescent Pecan Pie Bars
I made this for a Thanksgiving get together, and they were a BIG hit. It was So easy to make, and they were so yummy! I increased the amount of nuts to 1 cup, as another cook had. I also used parchment paper to make clean up easier. It is a little more difficult to spread dough, but it will work. I will definitely be making these again!
