About this Cook
I grew up eating tradtional southern food (everything fried and covered in gravy). While those foods are delicious, I'm trying to eat healthier these days by eating less meat and more vegetarian dishes.
My favorite things to cook
Anything new and different.
My cooking triumphs
I once made an eight layer cake decorated like a Christmas package for a party. It was so beautiful - it looked like it came from an expensive bakery. Unfortunately, it was so pretty noone wanted to cut it, so all my efforts were wasted.

The Best Rolled Sugar Cookies
So good. Exactly like the cookies from Cookie Bouquet. I roll them closer to 1/2 thick and ice them with royal icing. Great for Christmas and Valentine gifts.

Peppermint Meringues
Very good and simple to make. I gave them as Christmas gifts to my coworkers and everyone loved them. I did add about 1/4 tsp of vanilla extract, though because I love vanilla.

Mexican Bean and Squash Soup
Very good base. I used veggie broth to make it vegetarian I used garbanzo beans, and added a can of black beans because it looked like it needed more substance. I didn't use sour cream or tortilla chips, though. Half of one squash made the two cups needed, but next time I'll put the whole squash in. It was a very tasty, healthy meal.
