About this Cook
I'm a librarian and I do love to read. I love to cook as well when I have time and for special occasions. I get rave reviews for my mashed potatoes and I'm not too bad in the "mixology" of drinks either. My favorite dish is enchiladas but my favorite cuisine is Italian - anything with cheese and sauce (preferably tomato) is a hit with me.
My favorite things to cook
Mashed potatoes, desserts, pasta, seafood, and chicken always works.
My favorite family cooking traditions
Tamales on Thanksgiving, posole for Christmas, and just tasting all the good food and drinks we bring together throughout the year.
My cooking triumphs
When the bowl is empty before the night is out.
My cooking tragedies
Nothing too epic, but it sucks when the rice is underdone or when I put too much salt in something.

Artichoke & Spinach Dip Restaurant Style
Made this for Thanksgiving this past holiday season. It turned out really good - just as yummy as in any restaurant and super easy. I used canned minced garlic, the whole 8 ounces of cream cheese and instead of layering, I pre-mixed everything and added a layer of parmesan cheese & mozzarella on top before I baked it.

Grilled Salmon I
The simple marinade made all the difference with the taste of this salmon. Very easy to make and I'll definitely make it again.
