Cooking for my family which includes two little girls. Love to make fancy things, but no time at the moment. Crockpot meals, appetizers, salads, desserts :) My husband makes latkes the first day of Hanukkah each year. We make a lot of homemade hot chocolate in the winter, and we grill a lot in the summer. Chili- everyone loves my chili :) The first million times I tried to make cookies, I failed horribly. I think it must have been the humid environment and the lack of skill. I still can't make bread by hand, but luckily I do okay with a bread machine now!
