I absolutely love cooking proteins and dessert/baked goods! Anything that will dissapear as soon as it's made. I enjoy making things with fruit also...I love fruit. My Sour Cream Coffe Cake was probably the first thing I've ever made and have made successfully every time, it's very easy. It's always a hit wherever and whenever I make it. I failed miserably with some braided bread I tried to make; it was not a good tasting bread...maybe that's how it tastes but i'm not sure...i threw it out.
