About this Cook
I love to cook! I'm a very strict vegetarian, almost completely vegan. My boyfriend and I are constantly trying out new recipes. I even manage my own vegetarian blog: http://blog.shippersx.com
My favorite things to cook
Anything vegetarian. Desserts are my favorite to cook, but not to eat.
My favorite family cooking traditions
I don't really have any. All of my families recipes are not vegetarian, sadly. I plan on making some of my own soon! During the holidays, the meal my family cooks revolves around a dead animal, so I don't take part in that anymore.
My cooking triumphs
Everytime my boyfriend and I cook a delicious meal, it's a triumph for us both!
My cooking tragedies
One time, I tried out a new recipe from a cookbook of mine. I went to two different stores getting the ingredients (It was for a special rice dish with cashews). It was expensive to buy too. Did everything perfectly, tried it, and absolutely hated it. Very disappointing. I've been lucky and haven't had anything catch on fire.

Rustic Multi-Grain Bread
Very good! I added extra flour because my dough was really wet, but I think I added too much in the end. It still tasted great. I love the braided effect. Thank You for sharing!

Vegetarian Chili
5 stars with one modification: tomato paste. I used a little less beans, so maybe that was a factor, but the chili wasn't as thick and the major thing, it lacked something. Tomato paste is the missing flavor. I also only used 2 onions, 5 would have been way too much. I added the faux meat at the beginning, but next time I'll add it towards the end. Thanks for sharing!

Turtle Bread
This recipe is awesome! My bread came out very crispy on the outside, fluffy on the inside. It was easy to assemble too. The eyes popped out while it baked, so I had to poke a hole in and stuff them back in. I used soy milk, not cow's milk, and instead of an egg, I used an egg replacement called Ener-G. Definitely a keeper recipe, thanks for sharing the recipe!
