About this Cook
I am a daughter, mother, and wife. I have 2 beautiful daughters, Aurora, and my baby Anastasia. I have the best husband in the world!
My favorite things to cook
I love baking sweets and treats. Cookies are my favorite thing to make. I cook dinner every night (most) and enjoy finding new things to cook. I try to expose my girls to different flavors and foods as much as possible.
My favorite family cooking traditions
Cookies are traditional in my home. I learned to bake cookies with my aunt Von, whom I adore, as a child. I bake tons of cookies at Christmas time. I average only about 12 kinds between Thanksgiving and Christmas now that I have children.
My cooking triumphs
Honest? Pork Tenerloin. Never even tasted it but someone gave me one and now I'm hooked. Love it.
My cooking tragedies
Making dinner for husband when we where first dating. The gas pilot whent out on the stove. The cream corn was expired in the can. And I forgot to get milk for the mac n' cheese. We ate out.

Lemon-Filled Cupcakes
I made these for Easter this year and they went over really well. I think next time I will use a little more lemon flavor in the topping. As a side note, I used some of those lemon gummy candies that look like lemon wedges as a garnish on the top; they turned out cute and the gummy candy worked with the icing flavor.

Sweet Potato Casserole VII
I love sweet potatoes but my family does not. I still insist on serving them though. I made this recipe instead of my usual one. It tasted the same as what I normally serve but something about the presentation - my family ate it! Now I have to make and bring the sweet potatoes to Thanksgiving and Christmas dinners!

Caterpillar Cake
I made this for my daughter's 2nd birthday. I used Jr Mints for the eyes, M&M's for the back, orange slices for the feet, and surrounded it with green colored coconut flakes and some chocolate rocks. It was a big hit and I still get compliments from people when they see the pictures.
