Every year I look forward to watching that ball drop, Kissing my Charlie, and toasting the New Year and tossing a new nickle out the door with a wish for our new year together. (old custom)
Then my lover and I sit and snack on Strawberries and Chocolates.
Not gonna tell ya what we do next c

The one and only Julia :)
My hubby and I live in the snow belt of ny state. I love to cook and be creative cooking. Hubby likes to eat my cooking even the mistakes lol charlie eats anything is his motto. :) I love to garden. This year we are gardening in containers. easy to reach, easy to keep the wildlife out and closer to the kitchen.
My favorite things to cook
I like to cook meals that make folks feel good and go oh yummmmmm. When my hubby says I am a lucky guy and then yum I know its a winner.
My favorite family cooking traditions
I come from a family of women that cooked from scratch. that grew what they needed and canned what was leftover. In my travels I have learned many different styles from other wonderful women. So it is more then just my family that has influenced me.
My cooking triumphs
there are many.. but the one that means the most is from my daughter when she telephoned me to get my baked ziti recipe her favorite. :)
My cooking tragedies
lol oh my there have been so many over the decades..lol from childhood baking brownies by myself and using a 1/2cup of salt lol instead of flour lol they smelled good and my mom, with that proud look, served the first piece to my dads boss lol I shall never forget that look on that poor mans face lol
