About this Cook
I am married with 2 grown children. I live with my husband, our 4 dogs and 3 turtles.
My favorite things to cook
I enjoy taking recipes and making the necessary changes to make them suitable for my husband who is diabetic, currently being controlled by diet and oral medication.
My cooking tragedies
I guess the worse tragedy was the first time I cooked Thanksgiving and I baked the turkey with the bag of giblets still inside.

Coconut Poke Cake
This cake is GREAT! I used a can of unsweetened coconut milk instead of cream of coconut because I knew it would be too sweet otherwise. I also used some of the coconut milk in the mix as part of the liquid. It turned out perfect. Not too sweet with a nice velvety texture. Not at all mushy like I was afraid it would be. This is my husband's new favorite cake. Thanks Leslie for the wonderful recipe.

Ceviche
This is GREAT! I have had ceviche made with fish and shrimp before but this was my first time with scallops. It is amazing!!! The only thing I did differently was to finely chop the scallops (just a matter of personal preference) and add some serrano peppers. Will definitely make this over and over again. Thanks so much for the great recipe!

Ground Beef Pie
This recipe needed a lot of help in order to be to our taste. It was too plain as is but with some adjustments was great. I added onion, green pepper, tomato and a lot of seasoning. The basic idea is very good but for adults it is just too bland.
