I am a cook who learned on her own how to cook delicious meals based on simple ingredients, many without meat. I intend on posting more vegetarian meals in the future after I finish my certification tests in May.
My favorite things to cook
I like anything easy, quick, and cheap. I also like making homemade carrot juice which gives me ten times more energy than coffee, even Starbucks.
My favorite family cooking traditions
I love to cook birthday cakes and celebrate every birthday as I did not get to do as a child.
My cooking triumphs
Learning about the easy way to make pasta sauce that is delicious has saved me a lot of money on pasta sauce.
My cooking tragedies
Cooking candy is not my strong point. When I tried to make pecan praline I thought I would never finish and the end result was not hard, but soft and gooey.
