My favorite things to cook
I like to cook pizza and I create the sauces and dough from scratch, the same with lasagna and other pasta dishes. I really like to grill and grill whatever I can, chicken, steaks, vegetables, etc., etc. I like to cook breakfasts and really anything that catches my eye on web sites such as this and the Food Network where I'm a huge fan and record about 6 of their shows on my DVR.
My favorite family cooking traditions
I don't have any traditions but I did start cooking with my grandmother and am trying to learn the way she makes meals which is very unique, so I made it my goal to learn her methods and the way she makes things so that I can pass them down to my kids.
My cooking triumphs
Any I finish is a triumph really. I like to entertain people so I'm known for making some really big meals, so maybe I should start charging people for entertaining and my home!
My cooking tragedies
The only one I have where I made something that didn't turn out well is a summer time pasta dish that calls for onions, and I thought I would use shallots - didn't turn out so well. They added a bitter taste that didn't go well with the dish. When I first started grilling, I burned many, many, many pieces of chicken. :)
