About this Cook
I am a stay at home mom of 4 kids. 2 boys and 2 girls. I enjoy putting good healthy food on the table for my family. I like to try new things and thankfully my family enjoys trying new things!

My cooking triumphs
Homemade chicken noodle soup with homemade noodles! YUM
My cooking tragedies
Because my mom is such a great cook I never had the chance to cook much. So when I was married ( at 18) I couldn't cook one thing.. not even kraft mac n cheese. When I tried to make it I didn't even have all the stuff.. I thought everything was in the box and had no milk or butter.. needless to say we had PB and J for dinner :)

used regular yeast and flour due to not having anything else on hand. Followed the recipe exactly as written and its awesome! Came out beautiful. I have no idea why some people have issues with it rising to much..maybe climate is the reason?

Apple Pie by Grandma Ople
This is not an "easy" pie recipe. I made the sauce as I rolled out the pie dough and it got super thick. Had to add more water to it. Then pouring it over the lattice was not easy. Its hard to get the sauce ( even when its runny) down into the apples..I had to use a skewer and shift the apples around to make it flow down in the fruit. This pie does taste amazing and is worth the work. I recommend tossing the brown sugar mixture with the apples an skip the pouring it over top. Save about 1/2c to drizzle over top. I did add 1 tsp of cinnamon and 1 tsp vanilla.
