About this Cook
i am a young mother of 2 little boys. I love to bake and make all their meals and snacks. The best compliment I can receive is when I cook a meal and every last bite is eaten and I hear "thankyou" from my 3 favorite men!
My favorite things to cook
SWEETS. I love making cookies and cakes and such. I am venturing out more into pies and candy now. Little scary tho!
My favorite family cooking traditions
I love my family's Thanksgiving and Christmas dinners. We all bring a dish and it's just wonderful. I also enjoy our Sunday afternoon backyard bbq's.
My cooking triumphs
My 4 year old is not that in to my baking. Unless it is a sweet treat he wont eat it. He prefers store bought processed foods. I made a batch of peanut butter granola bars last week and he LOVED them! Victory at last!
My cooking tragedies
I attempted some pumpkin fudge a while back and it never set up. I was so looking forward to it too.

Chewy Chocolate Chip Granola Bars
I thought these were very good, however I gave them 4 stars because if I had added all of the dry ingredients listed, it would have been far too crumbly. I only used 2.5 cups of rolled oats, 1/3 cup of wheat germ and omitted the cereal all together. I used dark instead of milk chocolate chips because that's what I had and I think it would have been better with Milk chocolate chips. I could taste the applesauce a bit. A bit. If I did not know it was in there I would probably just wonder what that slight flavor was and continue eating it though. I will definately make again.

Baked Teriyaki Chicken
I thought this was very good! As other reviewers suggested I cut the sugar down because I thought this would be a sweet recipe but it was just right. Very good and very easy to make. I doubled the sauce, by the way and I just dumped the sauce over the chicken and I cooked it uncovered. Will make again, thanks. I served it with fried rice and green beans.

Peach Cobbler VI
This is the first peach cobbler I have ever made and I thought it was fantastic. BUT.. I am not a peach cobbler fan, crazy, because I am from south MS. My husband who LOVES peach cobbler ate it up. The only thing was that he said it was more "bready" than peach cobbler he is used to. And I agreed, it has a bready feel to it. But I guess that is how I like it! Will make again.
