About this Cook
I'm a 30-something BF who enjoys writing, reading, art, cooking, dining, visiting cemeteries and photographing odd tombstones, cats, horses, history (esp. WWII, Egyptian, Greek, and religious), foreign travel & cultures, mountains, true crime, nearly anything about vampires, and collecting unusual names, recipes, and books (I've got all the statehood quarters now).
My favorite things to cook
Thai-style soba or rice noodles, curried couscous, tabouli, hummus with pita bread, Greek pizza, healthy sesame chicken, chicken or veggie pot pie, homemade ice creams/sorbets/frozen yogurts, cherry-limeade, homemade ginger ale, cakes, brownies, cookies, cheesecake (yum-yum), and veggie soups.
My favorite family cooking traditions
My family only eats Southern-style foods, though those of us of the younger generation will try almost anything once. I love ethnic food!
My cooking triumphs
Southern Comfort, Kahlua, Pineapple Upside Down, Harvey Wallbanger, Almond Joy, Coconut Rum, and Double Orange cakes wowed my family and friends.
My cooking tragedies
The Blue Velvet cake I made this past Christmas turned green!

Beverly Hills Cheesecake
I made this WITHOUT the sour cream topping as I knew I probably wouldn't like it (esp. after reading the reviews). Nice cheesecake, nothing truly special.

Orange Juice Cake
MmmMmm good! Loved it, loved it, loved it but I don't put oil in my cakes, I always use applesauce...and I added some orange zest for extra flavor. My family raved!

Mocha Cake I
Yum, yum! I LOVE this cake - chocolate is one of my fave flavors...of course, when I make cakes, I use applesauce rather than oil, egg substitute for eggs, and fat free sour cream and/or puddings. My family is always fooled by the taste!
